Robert Baillie reminds us that the Christian should mourn more for the sins of the land than for its desolations:

The natural and kindly children of God, will have more sorrow at their heart for the sins of the land, than for the desolations thereof. What ever poverty, disgrace, pain, can befall their person, the very wrath of God, suppose the torments of hell, will not be so heavy so bitter so troublesome to them, as their sins, the cause of all these evils.

For the reference, see:
