onymously from London 5l. with these words: "To Brother
Mueller, with the writer's fervent prayer, that the giver of all good
may continue to pour down upon him and all his undertakings the
abundance of His blessings. Half for his own necessities, and half to be
disposed of as he thinks fit." I cannot help noticing here the Lord's
double kindness, both towards the Orphans and towards myself. I now need
for myself more money than usual, as besides the regular housekeeping
expenses at home, I need money for myself and dear wife in going away
for the twofold object of our health and my having thus time to write
the Report: and the Lord supplies me with means. Thus also I received
yesterday 5l. for "change of air," and 5l. was sent to me for myself the
day before yesterday from a brother at Winchester, whom I have never
seen. I find continually, that, without making provision for extra need,
and without reckoning anxiously about the future, the Lord helps me when
I need anything. I find it pleasant and precious, even as to this life,
to walk in the ways of the Lord.

There came in still further yesterday morning for the Orphans from A. A.
13s. 1d., from a brother 1l., from "A friend at Stirling" 6s., and from
an Irish sister 5s.--Thus I could send still further this morning to
the matrons, before my departure, 4l. 11s. 1d., so that I am able to
leave about 16l, behind, and thus the need is supplied for about five
days, humanly speaking; and before that time is gone, I expect to obtain
more, by waiting upon God.

This morning, before we departed, I received a letter in which was the
following sentence: "With regard to property I do not see my way
clearly. I trust it is all indeed at the disposal of the Lord; and if
you would let me know of any need of it in His service, any sum under
200l. shall be at your disposal at about a week's notice." This
brother meant what he said, I have every reason to believe. I might have
written; "The Orphans, my dear brother, are now in need, and it would be
a particular comfort to me, as I am going away, if you would send me
190l.," and I doubt not that I should have had it after a week. I
preferred, however, to continue, as heretofore, to deal with God alone
in this service, that the church of Christ at large still further may be
benefited, particularly those who are weak in the faith, or those who
are recently brought to the knowledge of our Lord Jesus, in seeing how
blessed it is to make
