Powerless And Useless

Of what use would be the machinery which is to be moved, without a force adequate to move it? Without a main-spring within the clock, however complete all its wheels, pinions, pivots, and axles, these hands would stand on the face of time, nor advance one step over the numbered hours. So were it without the power of the spirit, with the renewed soul, to set its forces in action, bring them into play, and impart to them a true and heavenward character.—GUTHRIE.
