Sir Francis Drake, being in a dangerous storm in the Thames, was heard to say, 'Must I who have escaped the rage of the ocean, be drowned in a ditch?' Will you, experienced saints, who have passed through a world of tribulation lie down and die of despair, or give up your profession because you are at the present moment passing through some light affliction? Let your past preservation inspire you with courage and constrain you to brave all storms for Jesus' sake.
