To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Faith holds on. It has decided into whose hands it will com- mit itself, and there it stays. Faith is humble. It is itself a confession of weakness and need, and is not to be cast down nor discouraged by having the weakness and the need set before it. Tell it " You are poor and unworthy," and it is ready with the reply " Therefore I come for help and forgive- ness and acceptance." Such tests as these are the trial of your faith, — ^more precious than the fiery trial of gold that perisheth. That... flame which bums away the distrustful attempt to make a doubting experiment of Christ, makes the true faith that commits itself to God without one reserve, to shine out like the drop of pure gold at the bottom of the crucible. Christ tried the faith of this heathen woman by these two tests, and it was perfect and entire, .wanting nothing. She is content to be not only a suppliant, and not only, for the time, an unsuccessful suppliant, but (what is hardest for pride to bear) a neglected, slighted suppliant.
