Anxiety is a good thing; but, on the other hand,
despondency, dejection, and despair of our salvation, are injurious to
the soul. Trust therefore in the goodness of God, and look for
His succour, knowing that if we turn to Him rightly and sincerely, not
only will He not cast us off forever, but will say to us, even while we
are in the act of uttering the words of our prayer, “Lo! I am
with you.”
