It is perfectly true that the divinity within man will shelter, feed, and clothe him materially, as it will also do spiritually, provided he looks for it, submits himself to its guidance, and obeys its promptings. But it is also true that the selfsame divinity may strip prosperity and possessions from a man's shoulders and lead him into the cold waters of destitution, and this because it has begun to make its presence felt in his life. It may do this or it may not, depending on individual circumstances and the man's degree of attachment to material possessions, but whatever it does will be wise and needful.
