National sin
A boat rows against the stream; the current punishes it. So is a nation violating a law of God; it is subject to a judgement. The boat turns and goes with the stream; the current assists it. So is a nation which has repented and put itself into harmony with God’s Law; it is subject to a blessing. But the current is the same; it has not changed, only the boat has changed its relationship to the current. Neither does God change–we change; and the same law which executed itself in judgement now expresses itself in reward. [Thomas Brooks]
