For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and than vanisheth away." A fourth reason for contentment, and which we cannot doubt influenced the pious woman of Shunem, is to be derived from a view of that future happiness which infinite goodness has provided for the children of God.
And who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ sope....
