Benjamin Franklin said, “He who spits against the wind spits in his own face.” I have read of a spider that tried to build a web on the moving hands of a town clock. I do not think any spider is that foolish, but far more foolish is the man who tries to go against the purposes of God.

When we sin, we are often upset, not because we have grieved the Spirit but because our pride has been injured. We thought we were too good to do such a thing and we are disappointed in ourselves. Too rarely do we hear men pray like David: “Against thee, thee only, have I sinned…” (Psalm 51:4).
