“In Jesus are riches—if you are poor;

honor—if you are despised;

friendship—if you are forsaken;

help—if you are injured;

mercy—if you are miserable;

joy—if you are disconsolate;

protection—if you are in danger;

deliverance—if you are a captive;

life—if you are mortal;

and all things—if you have nothing at all.”

— James Meikle, 18th-c.
