9. For he spake, and it was done. Creation
was the fruit of a word. Jehovah said, “Light be,” and light was. The Lord’s
acts are sublime in their ease and instantaneousness. “What a word is this?” This
was the wondering inquiry of old, and it may ours to this day. He commanded,and it stood fast. Out of nothing creation stood forth, and was confirmed
in existence. The same power which first uplifted now makes the universe to
abide; although we may not observe it, there is as great a display of sublime
power in confirming as in creating. Happy is the man who has learned to lean
his all upon the sure word of him who built the skies!
