14. Wait on the Lord. Wait at his door with prayer; wait at his foot with humility; wait at
his table with service; wait at his window with expectancy. Be of goodcourage. A soldier’s motto. Courage we shall need, and we have reason to
exercise it if we are soldiers of King Jesus. And he shall strengthen thineheart. What strength is this which God gives to the heart? Read the Book
of Martyrs and see its glorious deeds; go to God rather, and get such power
yourself. I say. David sets his own private seal to the word which, as
an inspired man, he had been moved to write. It is his testimony as well
as the command of God, and indeed he who writes these scanty notes has himself
found it sweet, reviving, profitable to draw near to God.
