"Then again," the widow went on, "we are told that `He causeth His wind to blow, and the waters flow. I am sure I can show you that.
But perhaps the knowledge which causeth not to err, is most frequently impressed upon the mind during seasons of affliction; and tears are the softened showers which cause the seed of Heaven to spring and take root in the human breast. At least it was thus with Mary Avenel.
We had been given to expect that, although we had taken the precaution to pitch our tent without the limits of the intolerant place, the police would be present, and would most probably disperse our assembly.

Divisions are, as the northeast wind to the fruits, which causeth them to dwindle away to nothing; but when the storms are over, every thing begins to grow.

All things, save Himself, are His creatures and subject to Him. Even those things that seem to resist and defy His authority are under His government.
