God is the hardest taskmaster I have known on earth, and God tries you through and through. And when you find your faith is failing or your body is failing you, and you are sinking, God comes to your assistance somehow or other, and proves to you that you must not lose your faith and that God is always at your beck and call, but on God's terms, not on your terms.
