all honey would harm us by Thomas Brooks Psalm 30 verse 5 weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning Our mourning shall last but until morning. God will turn our winter's night into a summer's day, our sighing into singing, our grief into gladness, our mourning into music, our bitter into sweet, our wilderness into a paradise. The life of a Christian is filled up with interchanges of sickness and health, weakness and strength, want and wealth, disgrace and honour, crosses and comforts, miseries and mercies, sorrows and joys, mourning and mirth. All honey would harm us, and all wormwood would undo us, A composition of both is the best way to keep our souls in a healthy constitution. It is best and most for the health of the soul that the warm south wind of mercy and the cold north wind of adversity both blow upon it. And though every wind which blows shall blow good to the saints. yet certainly their sins die most, and their graces thrive best when they are under the frigid, drying, nipping north wind of calamity, as well as under the warm, nourishing south wind of mercy and prosperity. Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Proverbs chapter 30 verse 8
