in Zion’s Landmark vol.9 no.9 (1876)
A NEW YEAR has rolled around upon us and one closed forever;
and, do we love him, who worketh all things after the
counsel of his own will, and worketh all things together for
good in the accomplishment of his own eternal purposes. In
the affairs of individuals and nations we are not blind to the
fact that God has been directing the course of events in the
fulfillment of his own designs concerning the destiny of our
common world, and the unfolding and establishing of his own
glory among men, although we have not been able to see and
regard these events in all their bearings just as God sees and
regards them. |
