The first was  making the unbeliever sad, in the recognition of his need of God’s  grace. The second was making the believer joyful in response to God’s  grace. He believed the answer to the second difficulty could be found in  Paul’s teaching in Romans 8:28—God works all things together for good  for his people.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1663 (under the title \u003ci\u003eA  Divine Cordial\u003c\/i\u003e), the year after Watson and some two thousand other  ministers were ejected from the Church of England and exposed to  hardship and suffering, \u003ci\u003eAll Things for Good\u003c\/i\u003e contains the rich  exposition of a man who lived when only faith in God’s word could lead  him to such confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThomas Watson’s exposition is always  simple, illuminating, and rich in practical application.
