The moral life of man would soon be exhausted if God by His Spirit did
not continually renew it.
Water plunging over the rocks at Niagara is intercepted and
made to turn the giant turbines of electric power plants before
it is allowed to hurry on its way to the sea. If the waters of
the Great Lakes were not replenished Niagara would soon run dry
and our mill-wheels stop. But year by year, and day by day,
the sun’s rays evaporate the waters of the ocean and lift them
back again to the mountain tops, whence they flow downward into
the lakes and rivers.--CHARLES LANE POOR, “The Solar
System.”
