“PILOT,” said a poor, nervous, timid passenger, as the steamer was making her way up a rather dangerous river, “do you know where all the hidden rocks, quicksands, and dangerous places are in the river?” “No,” was his hasty reply, “I do not. But I know where deep water is.” What comforting words to the timid one: “I know where deep water is.” How often the Lord’s dear people are pressed down beyond measure because they are occupied with dangerous rocks and difficulties, today’s needs and tomorrow’s cares. What will happen? How shall I get through? I am afraid to meet tomorrow, and such-like, are the oft-repeated words. Beloved fellow-Christian, leave the dangerous places and think of the deep waters. What are they, you say? “Keep yourselves in the love of God.” Keep in its warm and blessed rays. Let it permeate your whole spiritual being. Those depths are truly “waters to swim in; waters that cannot be passed over” (Ezek. 47:55Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over. (Ezekiel 47:5)). There is no danger there. There the heart is kept in perfect peace. The Lord give us the needed grace to “keep ourselves in the love of God” (Jude 2121Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (Jude 21)).
