"At the time I was immensely chagrined that I could not get a proper teacher, but now, after the lapse of only a few months, I can see good reason for thanking God for leading me by that way. This should teach me to trust God more than I do when things seem to thwart my purpose. ... Here again I have to praise God for not giving me my own way. "Thy way, not mine, O Lord; However dark it be.""
