I bless the Lord, that all our troubles come through Christ's fingers

"I bless the Lord, that all our troubles come through Christ's fingers, and that he casteth sugar among them: and casteth in some ounce weights of heaven and of the spirit of glory in our cup." -- Rutherford, Samuel, and Ellen S. Lister. The Loveliness of Christ: Extracts from the Letters of Samuel Rutherford. Edinburgh: Banner of Truth Trust, 2007, 34. [Letter CCLXV, 17 Sept. 1637]
