On the Mountain

"In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?" Psalms 11:1

 A dear old Christian woman on hearing persons speaking of their feelings, used to say, “Feelings! feelings! Don’t bother about your feelings. I just stick to the truth that Christ died for me and is my surety on to eternity, and I’ll stick to that like moss to a rock.”

Yet however false or unhealthy religious feeling may sometimes be,

the great truth still remains that feeling is the secret of doing. The heart must be engaged for Christ or the hands will soon hang down. The mountain-top vision fits for work in the valley, or should do so.
