But at length this gracious wo•, being left quite destitute, and her children calling upon her, when she had neither ⟨p. 239⟩bread nor money, breaks out into a bitter weeping, which one of the little ones observing, he comes, and pulls his mother by the Apron, saying, Mother why do you weep thus? Is God dead now? such a rebuke did the Lord send her, by the mouth of a poor babe. Brethren be not dismayed, Christ liveth, and therefore let your hopes live, let your courage live, let your faith live also. Christ liveth ever, therefore let your hearts live for ever, Psal. 22. 26. He liveth to make intercession for you, and from his living, you may be assured of life, John 14. 19. of your Justification, Rom. 8. 34. Of your Salvation, Rom. 5. 10.
