Man's Need of the Superhuman
Homiletic Monthly
Psalm 61:2
From the end of the earth will I cry to you, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.


Unless the rock be beyond our height it cannot shield us from the sun-glare, nor from the arrows of the enemy. We need —

I. A FAITH THAT IS BEYOND THE RANGE OF EARTHLY KNOWLEDGE. Daniel Webster said he would not believe in a religion whose doctrines he could comprehend.

II. A POWER TO HELP US THAT IS BEYOND OUR OWN POWER, in order to conquer ourselves.

(Homiletic Monthly.)
