No mistakes!

(J. C. Ryle, "The Gospel of John")

"My times are in Your hands." Psalm 31:15

The servants of Christ in every age should
treasure up the doctrine before us, and
remember it in time of need. It is full of
sweet, pleasant, and unspeakable comfort
to godly people.

Let such never forget that they live in a world
where God overrules all times and events, and
where nothing can happen but by God's
permission. The very hairs of their heads are
all numbered. Sorrow and sickness, and poverty,
and persecution, can never touch them—unless
God sees fit.

Then let them work on confidently.

They are immortal—until their work is done.

Let them suffer patiently—if needs be that
they suffer.

That hand guides and governs all things
here below, and makes no mistakes!
