Columbus died in utter ignorance of the true nature of his discovery. He supposed he had found India, but never knew how strangely God, had used him. So God piloted the fleet. The great discoverer, with all his heroic virtues, did not know whither he went. "He sailed for the back door of Asia, and landed at the front door of America, and knew it not." He never settled the continent. Thus far and no farther, said the Lord. His providence was over. - [Discovery Day]
