1. _Drive out all unbelief._ With such a God to trust to, let us
trust with all our might. It is an insult to Him to doubt Him. The
devil calls God a liar, but it is hard if a man's own child is to
think ill of his father. We are verily guilty in speaking hard things
of our God. 2. _Seek the Holy Spirit's help._ We have often said we
would not doubt again, yet we have. Let us ask to be strengthened.
We often forget that the Author of our faith must be the Finisher of
it also. 3. Try to _bring others to trust_ where we have trusted
(John i. 40-42, 45). 4. Love Him who thus gives Himself to be trusted
by us. The sister graces ever live together. Show your love. 5. We
must _prove our faith by our works._ Let us do more for God. "No day
without a deed." Cease working and you will soon cease
believing.--_C. H. Spurgeon: Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit,_ vol.
xi. pp. 469-480.
