“ Sobering Sermon! ” One of the hardest, I may say the hardest of all Christian duties is waiting on the Lord. Waiting that is for the appointed time when that vision the believer has seen, will be fulfilled. One must wait for it, though it tarry. But alas, many faithful saints have over the generations bought down upon themselves many woes and sorrows by running ahead of God and taking matters into their own hands, as the father of the faithful has done here. And though one can never excuse such self will or lightly brush it off, God has His way even in the whirlwind. These woeful and sad failures of the saints God will use, to keep His people humble and regretful in the many years to come as they reflect upon and taste those most bitter fruits of self will, and of their having miscarried and failed. These experiences God will use to keep the heart of His people contrite and their eyes tearful, which is an acceptable sacrifice to God. How gloriously wonderful are God's ways, bringing light out of darkness and good out of evil, causing all things to work together for the good of those that love God those who are the called according to His purpose.
