It is not a sea, a Red Sea, a Dead Sea, for it is not hell; it is light, and but for a moment. 2. It is a cup that is given us. Sufferings are gifts (Philippians 1:29). 3. It is given to us by a Father, who has a father's authority, and does us no wrong — a father's affections, and means us no hurt.
