At the present time there is a great lack among the children of God of the consciousness of their feebleness, and of being faithful to the deposit made by God. They do not see that one great object in giving it, is to make us remember in our scenes of trial, that God is to us what He was to Israel, carrying them through the wilderness; that we may have the consciousness of all the fullness there is in Christ and in God for us. He means us to see our weakness, but to know in the midst of it that He has stores in Jesus whose fullness is to fill us.
