John
Wesley was one day walking along the road with a friend who, sore vexed and
troubled, expressed his doubts of God's goodness.
'I
don't know what I shall do with all my worries and troubles,' said he.
Wesley
noticed a cow looking over a stone wall, and put the question, 'Why does a cow
look over the wall?'
`Because
it can't see through it, I suppose,' replied his friend.
`Precisely!'
said Wesley. 'So, if you can't see through your troubles, try looking over
them: and look up to God.'

121:1-2 (ESV): "I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help
come?
My
help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth."
"Some
people have the power but not the willingness to help. Others have the
willingness but not the power. God has both." - Lee Roberson.
