Robert Traill (Stedfast Adherence to the Profession of our Faith), Works 3:133-134:

People should act their faith on God’s faithfulness in case of desertion, when our Lord hides himself. Our Lord Jesus went before us as a pattern in this: My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? To put a my to a forsaking God, is brave believing. Our Lord’s case, I know, is altogether singular, but many believers have had some measure of his Spirit in using that word in their own case. When a man walks in darkness, and has no light, what shall he do then? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God, Isa. 50:10. If a man forbear trusting in the Lord till darkness be scattered and light come, and if he says it is time enough for me to believe when God lights the candle; no, says the Spirit of God, When he walks in darkness, and hath no light, let him then trust in the name of the Lord.
