believing resignation and joyful expectation of the promises are pecu liarly pleasing in the sight of God and honourable to religion, vs. 24, 25

10. How wonderful the condescension of the Holy Spirit I How great his kindness in teaching us, as a parent his children, how to pray and what to pray for ! How abundant the consolation thus afforded to the pious in the assurance that their prayers shall be heard, vs. 26, 27.

11. Those who are in Christ, who love God, may repose in perfect security beneath the shadow of his wings. All things shall work together for their good, because all things are under the control of him who has called them to the possession of eternal life according to his own purpose, V. 28.
