The animal, like the moon, shines with borrowed rays ; but man is as the sun, which goes forth in his own strength, and manifests his own inherent glory. Truly, man is ' fearfully and wonder- fully made !' How great the goodness which made him such ! " The goodness of God to man is GRACE KING. 109 seen in the ample and varied provi- sion which is made for his enjoyment. The predilection for food with which God has endowed the brute creation is greatly circumscribed ; almost every order is restr...icted to its own distinct- ive quality and kind ; but man is so constituted that he is capable of taking an almost infinite variety. He takes his food from the earth, the air, and the waters. He feeds on the seeds, the herbs, and the roots of the earth ; he feasts on the flesh of the various animals ; he eats the winged fowls, and feathered songsters of the air ; and he is sustained by the flesh of the sportive tenants of the waters. So great, ample, and diversified are the means of gratification and support provided by the goodness of God for man.
