Vers. 83. For I am like a bottell in the smoke: yet doe I not forget thy statutes.
WE must remember the promises & the commandments in all our troubles, and they will sustain us: for if any fail in trouble, it is because they trust not the promises, or keep not the commandments. If we will be sure then that no affliction shall hurt us, but help us, and turn to our good, and to assure us of life everlasting, and to be delivered out of them in Gods good time; then let us look to all the promises made to us in Christ, and build a good conscience upon Gods commandments. But if we fail in these, then may we be sure that in trouble we shall fail, 2. Cor. 7.
