I remember the song he never promise me a rose garden; but even in the rose garden you had to contend with the thorns. So what has God promised us: for it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him (Phil 1:29). Peter tells us to rejoice that we participate in the sufferings of Christ,so that we may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. Mr Henry states that the people of God are not free from poverty, sickness, or outward affliction, but the Lord will consider their case, and send due supplies. Regardless of what is happening today the Lord will preserve you.

Who is Mr. Henry? It surely rains on the just as well as the unjust.
