O Lord our God, to whom not only the Church but our whole work-a-day
world belongs, give us the purged sight that can see Thy tokens there.
Deliver us from all foolish fear of changes since the goad moving all
things onward is in our Father's hand. And help us to be sure that
whatsoever befalleth us and ours has been permitted and appointed by a
Love that passeth knowledge. Amen.
"_The just shall live by faith._"
(ROMANS i. 17.)
