that not until a mother’s womb
softens from the pain of labor
will a way unfold
and the infant find that opening to be born.

All the awakened ones,
like trusted midwives are saying,
'welcome this pain.

Christ's benefits are so precious that He will dispense them only to those who need them and really desire them. — Martin Luther

Turner
It would much conduce to the settlement of your hearts, to consider, That by fretting and discontent, you do yourselves more injury thart till the afsltilions you lie under could do; your own discontent is that which arms your troubles with a sting; it is you that make your burden heavy, by struggling under it. Could you but lie quiet under the hand of God, your condition would be much easier and sweeter than it is. — John Flavel
