Feb. 2. When now again there was nothing left last evening in my hands
for the beginning of the coming week, there have been today, by two
different donors, two five-pound notes put into the Chapel-boxes, ditto
2s. 6d., ditto 2s. 6d., and also 2s. 6d. was given besides. Thus we are
again supplied fur the present. O Lord, fill my--heart with lively
gratitude for all Thy goodness! Lord help me, not only to trust in Thee
more and more, but also to love Thee more and more, seeing that Thou
dost condescend to use such a poor sinful servant!
Feb. 8, Saturday evening. Above 30l. has come in during this week; but
as there have been bought eight hundred weight of rice and eight bushels
of peas, besides meeting the regular housekeeping expenses, again only a
few shillings remain.
Feb. 10, Monday. Yesterday 2l. was sent to me, from a physician residing
in Bristol; anonymously was put into the boxes at Bethesda Chapel 2s.,
ditto 1l., and ditto 2s. 6d. Also by A. A. was given to me 7s. 2d. I was
thus able, with the few shillings that were left on Saturday evening, to
meet the expenses of this day, after which 7s. 10d. remained. This
morning I was kept, through pressure of engagements, from having prayer,
on account of the work, at the usual time; but at half-past two I united
with my beloved wife and her sister in prayer, and I asked the Lord,
among other blessings, also for means. As to the latter, we had answer
upon answer before the close of the day. For this afternoon 1l. 5s. 9d.
arrived from Stirling. This afternoon also five sovereigns were put into
the box in my room, which I happened to find out soon after. I received
also this evening 5s., which had yesterday been anonymously put into the
boxes at Salem Chapel. A poor brother likewise gave me 2s. Still further
came in 11s. 5d.
Feb. 11. This morning I received still further a donation of 2l. This
afternoon I received, as the profit of the sale of ladies' bags, 1l.,
and 2l. 17s. 4d. came in by sale of articles.
