What to do when you’re anxious about the future
“Though I know not what trials may await me, yet I desire not to be anxious about the future; but rest in firm reliance on the Lord, that whatever he may see fitting to dispense, will be for my good, even as for daily bread.”
— Mary Waring, 1791
Quaker diarist

Mary Waring (1760-1805) was an English Quaker diarist. She was neither a minister nor a public figure in the Society of Friends, and her diary is mainly concerned with her inward spiritual struggles. It also offers a glimpse into the life of her meeting at that time, Godalming Quaker Meeting in Surrey.
