About this Quote

This quote by Anne Bradstreet speaks to the concept that when one is in a state of prosperity, they are more likely to be protected in their faith. This could be translated as implying that when life is working out, it is much easier to trust God and trust in His strategy. On the other hand, when one is in a state of hardship, it can cause them to question their faith and consider their beliefs more deeply. This quote might be viewed as a reminder that even in challenging times, it is very important to remain unfaltering in one's faith and trust in God's plan. It is in these minutes of misfortune that we can find out and grow in our faith, and come out stronger in the end.
