i likewise reminded him of the consequences that would result both in reference to believers and unbelievers if we should have to give up the work because of want of means and that he therefore would not permit of its coming to nought
I moreover again confessed before the Lord that I deserved not that he should continue to use me in this work any longer.
While I was thus in prayer, about two minutes' walk from the orphan houses, I met a brother who was going at this early hour to his business.
After having exchanged a few words with him, I went on, but he presently ran after me and gave me a pound for the orphans.
Thus the Lord speedily answered my prayer.
Truly it is worth being poor and greatly tried in faith, for the sake of having day by day such precious proofs of the loving interest which our kind Father takes in everything that concerns us.
and how should our father do otherwise?
He that has given us the greatest possible proof of his love which he could have done in giving us his own son, surely he will with him also freely give us all things.

Trust in the Lord better than man's promises.
May 6, 1845.
About six weeks ago, intimation was kindly given by a brother that he expected a certain considerable sum of money, and that, if he obtained it, a certain portion of it should be given to the Lord, so that one hundred pounds of it should be used for the work in my hands, and the other part for Brother Crake's and my own personal expenses.
However, day after day passed away, and the money did not come.
I did not trust in this money, yet, as during all this time, with scarcely any exception, we were more or less needy, I thought again and again about this brother's promise, though I did not, by the grace of God, trust in the brother who had made it, but in the Lord.
Thus week after week passed by, and the money did not come.
now this morning it came to my mind that such promises ought to be valued in a certain sense as nothing that is that the mind ought never for a moment to be directed to them but to the living god and to the living god only i saw that such promises ought not to be of the value of one farthing so far as it regards thinking about them for help i therefore asked the lord when as usual i was praying with my beloved wife about the work in my hands
that he would be pleased to take this whole matter about that promise completely out of my mind and to help me not to value it in the least yea to treat it as if not worth one farthing but to keep my eye directed only to himself i was enabled to do so
we had not yet finished praying when i received the following letter dated may fifth eighteen forty five beloved brother are your bankers still messrs stocky co of bristol and are their bankers still messrs robarts co of london
