(James
Smith, "Food for the Soul" 1867)
"Should it be according to your mind?"
Job 34:33
Thus the infinitely wise God appeals to us--His poor foolish
creatures.
We want our own way.
We wish to carve for ourselves.
But God loves us too well, to allow us to do so!
He has drawn the
plan of our lives.
He has marked out the paths we are to tread.
He has fixed the bounds of our habitation.
Yes, He has numbered the very
hairs of our head!
He has arranged everything to secure our spiritual and eternal
good. This He has told us in His Word--and yet we are not
satisfied. But, "Should it be according to your mind?"
