As a spring of water, so is grace in the heart. There is no stopping the spring, and if it be made thick and muddy, it will presently become lucid again. Throw a spadeful of earth upon the little spring welling up by the wayside, and though for a moment it be hidden, presently it will bubble up again, and be as fresh and clear as ever; the life of the fountain is not touched though the water be shut from view for a moment, And around the cool spring the flowers grow―it is a choice spot for the village children, who frequent the bubbling water. And grace in the heart of man draws and attracts; so that the divinity given in man leads man to God.
