It is better to rest on God than sink or fall

"I know all created power should sink under me if I should lean down upon it, and therefore it is better to rest on God than sink or fall; and we weak souls must have a bottom and [bigging-place] (place to build), for we cannot stand out alone. Let us then be wise in our choice and choose and wail our own blessedness, which is to trust in the Lord. " -- Rutherford, Samuel, and Ellen S. Lister.

(Matt. 7:26)
