Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
Long ago God established the earth upon its foundation and formed the heavens by His own hand, yet He remains enduring while they wear out, perish, and are exchanged like a garment. This contrast reveals Him as infinite, while human laborers are merely limited agents. The Infinite One joins His power to those who work in cooperation with heavenly agencies and who take their orders from Him. To such He imparts effectiveness and growth, enabling them to toil without anxious fretting and without loading impossible burdens upon their physical, mental, and moral strength.
