Excerpt from Some Account of the Life of the Rev. Gonthier: Minister of the Gospel at Nîmes and in Switzerland

The reader of the life of this christian pas tor, whose domestic aictions were so peculiarly trying, may learn, therefore, that every trouble was only a means to an end, and that end the most glorious attainable. Amid the gloom, if his eye have a spiritual discernment, he may distinguish, even from the commencement of his chastening, the first faint gleam of that shin ing light, which shineth more and more unto the perfect day.

Excerpt from Some Account of the Life of the Rev. Gonthier: Minister of the Gospel at Nîmes and in Switzerland

Our first thought on laying down the life of M. Gonthier, might be - Ah! here, indeed, is an instance of the melancholy fact, that "man is born to sorrow as the sparks fly upward:" but we must go into the sanctuary of God, and lift up our hands towards his holy oracle, if we would understand the life of man on earth, and the dealings of the Creator with him. Then every thing wears at once a new aspect. That which seemed a bounded life, with no horizon beyond the mound of the grave, becomes at once the pilgrimage of an immortal being whose rest is not here, but who is going onward to the Land of Promise.
