What though the soul were as dark as Hell? yet God can make it as light as Heaven. That God that caused light to shine out of darkness, can also shine into our dark hearts.
What though there be nothing within thee, nothing without thee, nothing round about thee, to comfort thee? yet there is something above thee. Cast anchor in Heaven: there's an Almighty God, to stay thy soul upon. The Name of the Lord is a sufficient prop, and rock to rest upon in any condition. — The Name of the Lord is a strong Tower; the Righteous fly to it, and is exalted, Prov. 18.10. or is in safety

There's safety in the Tower, when all other sorts and Bulwarks are gone; when Out-works are taken, and Walls are scaled, there is yet safety in the Tower.
