My DEAR BROTHER, - You see God orders all things well. You have reason to thank Him both for your sickness and your recovery. [He had been ill soon after his appointment to the Isle of Man, but was now recovered.] But whether sick or in health, if you keep in His way you are to prepare your soul for temptations. For how shall we conquer if we do not fight Go on, then, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. Fight the good fight of faith, and lay hold on eternal life! Salvation is nigh ! Seek, desire nothing else! - I am
Your affectionate brother.
