Robert Traill (Stedfast Adherence to the Profession of our Faith), Works 3:80:

Some may say, they see no appearance of performance; they have tried the promise of God, and it is as unlikely as it was at first; the complete salvation of their soul is far off; the growth of their corruptions appears daily; their consciences sometimes making as dreadful an alarm as in the days of their former darkness. This is a very common and ordinary exercise, and the cure of it is very easy; the remedy is near at hand. We are not to judge of the certainty of the fulfilment of the word of promise, by the appearances that are in providence towards us, but we are to build all upon the faithfulness of the speaker. Though clouds and darkness be round about him, righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne, Ps. 97:2. The word stands firmly, whatever darkness there be in his works. Wait a while, and but a little while (Heb. 10:37). Give him time, and give him trust, and none that believe in him shall ever be ashamed.
