To cause it to rain on the earth, where no man is; on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;
Since rain falls also on places uninhabited by man, it cannot be that man guides its course. Such rain, though man cannot explain the reason for it, is not lost. God has some wise design in it. The lovely flower that blooms in regions never explored by man, and that is watered by the rains of heaven, is seen by God, and reflects His glory, which is the ultimate end of all His works.
