I WILL TELL IT.

Many a physician has gained his practice by one patient telling others of his cure. Tell your neighbors that you have been to the hospital of Jesus, and been restored, though you hated all manner of meat, and drew near to the gates of death; and maybe a poor soul in the same condition as yourself will say, “This is a message from God to me.” Above all, publish abroad the Lord’s goodness, for Jesus’ sake. He deserves your honor. Will you receive this blessing, and then, like the nine lepers, give him no praise? Will you be like the woman in the crowd who was healed by touching the hem of his garment, and then would have slipped away? If so, I pray that the Master may say, “Somebody hath touched me;” and may you be compelled to tell the truth, and say, “I was sore sick in soul, but I touched thee, O my blessed Lord, and I am saved, and to the praise of the glory of thy grace I will tell it, though devils should hear it; I will tell it, and make the world ring with it, according to my ability, to the praise and glory of thy saving grace.”
