The Divine Compass.

A writer says: — “I was once at sea upon a voyage to New Zealand on a very dark night. The captain called me on to the deck to speak to me. It was so dark that I could not see my finger when I held it up before my eyes. He led me to the binnacle in front of the steersman. There was the compass fixed, and on either side was a bright lamp shining down upon it, and making it clear. So does God’s Holy Spirit shine on God’s Word, and so makes our path plain.
