Brethren, this is that which will stand by you one day, remember Christ is yours, John 6.17, 18, 19.1 the sea raged, night approached, and their hearts trembled to see Jesus walking on the Sea, mark what Christ saith, it is I; as who should say, It is a tempest makes you shake, but it is I that deliver you; the night is dark to trouble you, but I am here to comfort you: the world is the Sea, the soul the Ship, miseries the tempest; and when you see all these things threatening poverty and anguish, yet remember, it is I; art thou in prison? Remember I am there to deliver you, and as long as CHRIST is there to help you, ⟨p. 22⟩steel your faces; who would not be a Soldier to have Christ his leader and Captain? therefore see and consider, there is the Lord Jesus Christ, he is in misery to help and succour his.
