There are few things in which we so much fail as in apprehending the presence of God and His dealing with our souls in every circumstance of daily life. It is a constant snare for us to be looking at secondary causes; we do not realize God in everything. Hence Satan gets the victory over us. Were we more alive to the fact that there is not an event which happens to us in which the voice of God may not be heard or the hand of God not seen, what a holy atmosphere would surround us. Men and things would then be received as so many agents and instruments in our Father's hand.
