It is said of Blucher, that when he was marching to help Wellington at Waterloo, his troops faltered. "It can't be done," said they. "It must be done," was his answer. "I have promised to be there — promised, do you hear? You would not have me break my word." He was at Waterloo to good purpose; he would not be hindered, for his promise was given. We praise such faithfulness; we should think little of one who did not exhibit it. Shall the Lord God Almighty fail in his promise? No, he will move heaven and earth, and shake the universe, rather than be behind hand with his word. He seems to say: "It must be done. I have promised - promised, do you hear?" Sooner than his promise should fail, he spared not his own Son. J. Wilbur Chapan Quote this article on your site | Views: 582 | Print | E-mail
