Psalm 107:7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. A famous Swiss guide recently interviewed by a magazine writer is reported as saying: "There are guides and guides. One takes you up and trusts to luck. He is ready for anything, but does not know what is coming, he guesses where he is, when you ask: 'How far off is the peak?' I never do that. Before I start on a new track, or one I have not made before, I study it fully. I make a map of it. I watch it through the glass until I know it. When I say 'Go,' then I can see what is before me. On the mountain I must always know where I am. I'm not scientific, but I must carry my map with me and point: 'We are here.' I never start without my compass, thermometer, and aneroid, so that when you come to me at any moment and ask: 'Where are we?' I can say: 'Here, and it is so many feet from the top.' "So is it with the soul's great Guide. Jesus knows every inch of the way, has never failed a single traveller, and can say: "None lost, or ever shall be." (H. O. Mackey.)
