He does not let us see every thing in the future before us but makes us promises & makes us walk by faith that we may obtain them and the greater our trials & conquests the greater will be our crown & glory. So all those who have been tried & got through do not wish to administer to us in that way that they will make it any lighter for us than it has been for them that all may be tried alike as far as is consistent with the Economy of God
