Jacob did never enjoy so much the presence of God as when he had left the company of men. Oh! the sweet communion that Jacob had with God when he withdrew from his family, and was all alone with his God by the ford Jabbok! Certainly Jacob was never less alone than at this time, when he was so alone. Saints often meet with the best wine and with the strongest cordials when they are all alone with God.
