Faith upholds a Christian under all trials by assuring him:
that every dispensation is under the direction of his Lord;
that all chastisements are a token of His love;
that the season, measure, and continuance of his sufferings are appointed by Infinite Wisdom and designed to work for his everlasting good;
and that grace and strength shall be afforded him according to his need.
