“There is mercy and never-failing compassion in God, so that though my own present
condition be full of darkness, and I see no deliverance, yet I purpose still to 
abide waiting on Him.

Who knows what those infinite stores and treasures of mercy and relief that are 
with Him may at length afford unto me? (**Lamentations 3:21-23**)”
