Even here amidst trials and temptations let us, let all men, sing
alleluia. God is faithful, says holy Scripture, and he will not allow you to be
tried beyond your strength. So let us sing alleluia, even here on earth. Man is
still a debtor, but God is faithful. Scripture does not say that he will not
allow you to be tried, but that he will not allow you to be tried beyond your
strength. Whatever the trial, he will see your through it safely, and so enable
you to endure. You have entered upon a time of trial but you will come to no
harm – God’s help will bring you through it safely. You are like a piece of
pottery, shaped by instruction, fired by tribulation. When you are put into the
oven therefore, keep your thoughts on the time when you will be taken out again;
for God is faithful, and he will guard both your going in and your coming out.
Saint Augustine
God is Faithful
