Psalms 16:2-3. O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee; but to, the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
"My God, I would fain prove my gratitude to thee if I could; but what can I do for One so great as thou art? Thou art infinitely above me; thou needest nothing at my hands. What, then, can I do to show my love to thee? By my care for thy people I may prove what I would do for thee if I could. Are they hungry? I will feed them. Are they sick? I will visit them. If my goodness cannot reach the great Head of the Church, it shall at least wash the feet, for I do love thee, O my God; and I want, in some practical way, to show that I love, thee!"
