The charm of the words of great men, those grand sayings which are recognized as true as soon as heard, is this, that you recognize them as wisdom which has passed across your own mind. You feel that they are your own thoughts come back to you, else you would not at once admit them. 'All of that has floated across me before, only I could not say it, and did not feel confident enough to assert it or had not conviction enough to put it into words.' Yes, God spoke to you what He did to them only, they believed it, said it, trusted the Word within them and you did not. Be sure that often when you say, 'It is only my own poor thought, and I am alone,' the real correcting thought is this 'Alone, but the Father is with me, and therefore I can live that lonely conviction.'
