Wednes morning at Mrs Bowes prayr meeting and the
Ladies prayed for me they said. That the billow had gone
over me, but God had been my refuge
I never Expect to meet with these friends again, I hope that
I felt greatful to God for sparing my life so long. O that
I may be Solicitous to Promote this Glory
17 Thursday morning
I dreamed of my Dear Lydia and my other friends last night
May 18. I am all alone not one child at my table but
A short time since my Dear children were with me,
My cup of affliction is indeed full, yet gracious God, not
My will but thine be done, it is thine to command, but mine
to obey, while thou art with me I am not forsaken thou
Gavest, and thou hast taken away, blessed be thy name, I
Ask for nothing more than submission to thy will, I cast
myself into the arms of thy mercy, thou wilt not reject my cries
in the hour of distress, let me be thine, and I shall be comforted
