Have you counted on God as an opened fountain in which your empty bucket can be let down to be filled? In the midst of the wreck and ruin of the creature, can you say, notwithstanding it all, "I have found a spring in Thee, O God! and can count on Thee to give me all blessing in Christ—not to fill me once, and then all gone, but filling again and again"? I would have you judge yourselves about the sort of faith you have. Is it a living faith? It is the living God upon whom His people hang, drawing daily supplies from the fullness of the living springs in Him. Ah! if you have found that God, no depths can be too deep for the heart of that living God who meets us according to the circumstances in which we are.
G.V.W.
