Yet though claiming to be a God-made interpretation, it is confessedly through human agency, through the human mind and lips of the prophets and of Christ that this revelation has come to us.
But Clyde sat quietly, her lips slightly parted, her eyes shining as the warm wind poured past in a torrent plucking at vagrant strands of her coppery golden hair. "Fifteen miles an hour," said Casey. "Like it?" "It's better than fifty in a car," she replied. "The difference between God-made and man-made horsepower. Some people can't appreciate it." "I can. It isn't the end the pace alone.
And the historian ministers to this prejudice or vanity by diligently recording the whole dry catalogue, and then, as if weary of the business, or, perhaps, with just a touch of scorn, he introduces this one name as something worth talking about. Here was a god-made nobleman, whose heraldry need not be written on earth, because it is more surely written in heaven.
The bright tints of the lettuces and other fresh green vegetables serve to set off the rich colours of the God-made delicacies, but the prevailing hue of the scene is a restful earth-brown, an autumnal leaf-tint; the trodden ground, the sun-dried brush-wood of the booths and awnings, and the wet-stained wood-work. No glamour of paint or gleam of glass destroys the harmony of the surroundings.
We do not trust enough in God, we do not really believe His power enough, to be ready, as they were, as every one ought to be on a God-made earth, for anything and everything being possible; and then, when a wonder is discovered, we go into ecstasies and shrieks over it, and take to ourselves credit for being susceptible of so lofty a feeling, true index, forsooth, of a refined and cultivated mind.

To degrade or abuse the Marriage covenant is blasphemy, irreverence, sacrilegious wickedness.
And now the loving God-made human heart in her was going into a new school that it might begin a fresh beautiful growth.
This scent of the pine, the long white road, the wild-fire of the winter sunset and the wind and the hills are they not God-made messages of mystery to man? Life among man-made things like your cities seems somehow to exaggerate the importance of man the maker. Life among the God-made hills dwarfs that artificial sense of egotism. It teaches you to marvel at the mystery of Creation.
And I believe the reason for this lies, as I have said, in the atmosphere their man-made atmosphere just as the secret of your feeling the way you do lies in our atmosphere God-made. Were this atmosphere suddenly to disappear, both out of your cities and out of my deserts, both your world and my own would lose all of their charm." Stephen bestirred himself.
But don't found a new religion for Heaven's sake, and don't muddle up man-made laws and God-made instincts if they are God-made," he added. Peter said nothing, until they were waiting at the carriage-door for Jenks. Then he said: "Then you think out here men have simply abandoned conventions, and because there is no authority or fear or faith left to them, they do as they please?"
