THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
THE OMNIPOTENT. Humility is scarcely a characteristic mental attitude of this twentieth cenury.

Yet, “the energy requisite to overthrow a mountain is as a drop in the ocean compared with that which, holds it in its place and makes it a mountain.’’ We do well to contemplate what we are apt to overlook,, how truly prodigious are those energies which hold our universe together by the will of Him “upholding all things by me word of His power.’’
