Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon, Preached to the Bowdoin Street Congregational Society, Boston: On Closing Their House of May Worship, May 4, 1862 Every glad sight and joyous sound seems but a pall and knell to remembered blessings. He says with him who wrote the ´Lamentations:´ "He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out." "He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone." "Mine eye trickleth down, and if ceaseth not, without any intermission.´ Or with Hezekiah: "I said in the cutting off of my days, I shall go to the gates of the grave." "Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd´s tent.´ Or David: "I am tossed up and down as the locust;´ and with Job: "So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed unto me." It would be vain and would seem like mockery to say, ´Remember what health you have enjoyed, and be quiet.´ Such remembrance aggravates the pain. But the same thing can be expressed with a different look and tone, and it makes a world-wide difference. Think that God, who now afflicts you, is as wise and good as when he blessed you with health; find pleasure, not in recalling your former happiness, but in loving and serving Him who girded you with strength.
