Let wil only oblige him to own that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips. Let us in giving reproof, not make a matter worse than it is. Elihu direct Job to humble himself before God for his sins, and to accept the punishment. Also to pray to God to discover his sins to him. A good ma is willing to know the worst of himself; particularly, unde affliction, he desires to be told wherefore God contends with him. It is not enough to be sorry for our sins, but we must go and sin no more And if we are affectionate children, we shall love to speak with ou Father, and to tell him all our mind.

I am sure that will be wisest, and the best for his glory and my good __________________________________________________________________
