Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Plain Sermons: By Contributors to the "Tracts for the Times"
Others, again, are discontented because they have not those domestic blessings which some of their neighbours enjoy, such as relations, wife, and children, and the like. Yet jesus christ chose to be without all these; by which HE would doubtless show us, that there is nothing of any importance, nothing worth caring about, in all these things. Neither are we the better if we have them, neither are we the worse if we have them not. If we have such comforts, we are to be thankful for them if we have them not, we are quite as much to be thankful that we have them not; for we mav be quite certain, in either case, that we have what is best, when we have what god gives.
