“We may think that our lot is especially hard — and may wish that it were otherwise.... But the fact remains — that the place in which we find ourselves — is the very place in which the Master desires us to live our life….There is no haphazard in God’s world. God leads every one of His children by the right way. He knows where and under what influences, each particular life will ripen best.” — J.R. Miller, Week-Day Religion (1880), pp. 37-38
