Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermon, Occasioned by the Death, and Delivered at the Funeral of the Honorable Oliver Ellsworth Esq. L. L. D., Who Died November 26th, 1807, in the Sixty-Third Year of His Age I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it. Divine mercies and chastisements are so promiscuously distributed to men in the present state, that we cannot, by their outward circumstances in life, determine their real character. David, though a man after God´s own, heart, was distressed with outward afflictions and inward terrors - yet he resolved he would not utter a word which would appear as a reflection on God and his Providence. After making some observations on the brevity of human life, he resolved to exercise fortitude under every trial, and to seek for happiness, in the enjoyment of God. In order to this lie prayed for pardon, and professed submission to the divine will. "I was dumb; I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it." He was silent as to murmuring or repining against God or his Providence. When he looked to instruments only, he was discomposed and spake unadvisedly. But when he looked upon God, as the sovereign disposer of all things, he was silent. It is our duty, under all the trials of life to lie in humble submission before God. This will appear if we consider I, God is the rightful owner and proprietor of all things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
