Man's Constitution Declares His Need of Divine Guidance
Psalm 73:24
You shall guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.


Suppose a man were to say about a steamship, "the structure of this vessel shows that it is meant that we should get up a roaring fire in the furnaces, and set the engines going at full speed, and let her go as she will." Would he not have left out of account that there was steering apparatus which was as plainly meant to guide as are the engines to draw? What are the rudder and the wheel for? Do they not imply a pilot? And is not the make of our souls as plainly suggestive of subordination and control?

(A. Maclaren, D. D.)
