To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have other lessons to learn beside those we have learned. We must yet see that Zion is built up " not by might, nor by power,- but by the Spirit of God." We must feel that we are in the hands of God — that he exercises his own sovereign pleas- ure — that he has mercy on whom he will have mercy — and that if our prayers are heard, it will be entirely owing to his grace in Christ Jesus, and not to anything we have done, or can perform. It 274 THE FIRST INSTAKCE OP WRESTLIKO may appear paradoxi...cal that we must strive, and yet be sensible that we have no power of our own; but it is no greater paradox than that uttered by the Apostle, when he said, "When I am weak^ then am I strong^ The Christian's conscious weakness is the very secret of his strength. It is when his own fond and presumptuous confidence is as the spider's web, that he is most cheered with the thought that he has omnipotence to lean upon. It is only then that he who is of yesterday and knows nothing, a creature of want, infirmity and sin^ becomes peaceful in God's love, wise in his wisdom, mighty in his strength.
