5. The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord.
Inanimate nature knows its Creator, and worships him in its own fashion. States
and kingdoms which stand out upon the world like mountains are utterly
dissolved when he decrees their end. Systems as ancient and firmly rooted as
the hills pass away when he does but look upon them. At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. His power is everywhere felt. People cannot move
the hills, with difficulty do they climb them, with incredible toil do they
pierce their way through their fastnesses, but it is not so with the Lord: his
presence makes a clear pathway, obstacles disappear by his mere presence, for
power goes forth from him with a word or a glance. Oh for the presence of the
Lord after this sort with his church at this hour! It is our one and only need.
With it the mountains of difficulty would flee away, and all obstacles would
disappear.
