What trifles, what toys, what empty vanities',

What trifles, what toys, what empty  vanities do the great bulk of men pursue!
If God left us for a single hour

"Don't leave us!" Jeremiah 14:9

How much is summed up in those three words!

What would it be for God to leave us? 

What and where would we be, 
if God left us for a single hour?

What would become of us? 

We would fall at once into the hands . . .
of sin,
of Satan, and
of the world. 

We would be abandoned to our own evil
hearts—abandoned, utterly abandoned to 
the unbelief, the infidelity, to all the filth 
and sensuality of our wicked nature—to fill 
up the measure of our iniquities, until we 
sank under His wrath to rise no more!

"Don't leave us!" Jeremiah 14:9
