“After having endured so much suffering and poverty, and being on the edge of the grave. I unexpectedly found myself in abundance, in the lap of a loving family, by whose tender care I felt my health recover more and more.

Never grumble against God when disaster strikes you. Rather, wait patiently, believe, hope, and trust in him!” GodGraceMercyProvidence Book:Aanteekeningen Gehouden Gedurende Mijnen Marsch Naar: Gevangenschap In, En Terugreize Uit Rusland In De Jaren 1812,1813 En 1814 Source: Aanteekeningen Gehouden Gedurende Mijnen Marsch Naar: Gevangenschap In, En Terugreize Uit Rusland In De Jaren 1812,1813 En 1814
