THE ETERNAL WILL

THE ETERNAL WILL.
‘‘ To war the armored nations march,
With echoing tread and thud of drums;
But under heaven’s triumphant arch,
A king unseen in conquest comes.
A thousand wills are crossed in war,
A thousand victories lost and won.
They alter not His changeless law,
‘God’s will is destined to be done.’
“ To that one ‘will ’ creation turns
Her myriad gaze, in wonder dumb.
No flowers that blow, no sun that burns,
His secret tells in light or bloom.
But righteous law at last shall prove,
‘To Him was every battle won.’
Creation’s travail brought forth Love.’
‘God’s will is destined to be done.’”
“ The lot is cast into the lap ; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord.” (Bible.) “‘God’s will is destined to be done” How very true this is. “ Be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever
a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” We pass this way but once. Let us be up and doing. God help US
