Excerpt from The Life of Trust: Being a Narrative of the Lord's Dealings With George Muller Since 1860, three new Orphan Houses have been opened, accommodating more than thirteen hundred orphans; and the expenses of the establishment have been increased threefold. But God has proportioned the grace to the trial. The barrel of meal has not wasted, nor the cruse of oil failed. The supply has been equal to the demand. Several chapters have been added, giving a brief sketch of the growth and prosperity of the institution from 1860 to the present time. It exhibits the came daily providential care which marked the earlier history of Mr. Muller's labors. To give place to the new matter, without swelling the volume to an inconvenient size, paragraphs have been dropped here and there from the former edition, where it seemed possible to omit them, without interrupting the narrative, or weakening the force of its lessons. With the changes indicated, and the insertion of fine full-page wood engravings of each of the five Orphan Houses, the work is sent forth anew to encourage Christians to daily faith in a present and Living God. Mr. Muller's life is an eloquent sermon on the Power Of Faith. If science denies that God can interpose to overrule or guide his laws, an appeal may be made to this testimony of personal experience during nearly forty years. If Mr. Galton and Prof. Tyndall ask for proofs of the value of prayer in common life, they may be directed to the Bristol Orphan Houses, for the facts of which they are in search. The facts are numerous, direct, and attested by witnesses whose veracity cannot be impeached. Mr. Muller claims that these facts prove the Power And Willingness of God to Answer Prayer. He invites candid men to examine thorn, and pass judgment on his theory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
