Psalms 77:19

God’s path led through the sea”—just where you would not expect it to be! So when He leads us out by unexpected ways, off the strong solid land, out upon the changing sea, then we may expect to see His ways. We are with One who finds a path already tracked out, for it makes us perfectly independent of circumstances.

There is an infinite variety in the paths God makes, and He can make them anywhere! Think you not that He, who made the spider able to drop anywhere and to spin its own path as it goes, is not able to spin a path for you through every blank or perplexity or depression? God is never lost among our mysteries. He sees the road, “the end from the beginning.”

Thou holdest mine eyes waking.—Who is like unto the Lord our God, . . . who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

He doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth.—Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.—Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.
