Our Season of Probation
Let us count it no strange thing, if we have sufferings in this present time. It is a season of probation; we are yet at school.
We are learning patience, gentleness, and meekness, which we could hardly learn if we had our good things now. But there is an eternal holiday yet to begin. For this let us wait quietly. It will make amends for all. “Our light affliction which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory.” (2 Cor. 4:17.) ~ J.C. Ryle
