91. They continue this day according to thine ordinances. Because the Lord has bid the universe abide, therefore it stands, and all its laws continue to operate with precision and power. The Word which spoke all things into existence has supported them until now, and still supports them both in being and in well-being. For all are thy servants. Created by the Word they obey that Word, thus answering the purpose of their existence. Shall we wish to be free of the Lord’s sway and become lords unto ourselves? If we were so, we should be dreadful exceptions to a law which secures the well-being of the universe. Rather let us serve more perfectly as our lives are continued.
