CONTENTMENT IN SUFFERING

'...contentment, the mingling of joy and sorrow, of gracious joy and gracious sorrow together. Grace teaches us how to moderate and to order an affliction so that there shall be a sense of it, and yet for all that contentment under it.' 
Jeremiah Burroughs, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, p.41.
