Some boast of chariots, and some of horses;
but we boast of the name of the LORD our God.
Not much has changed. Ancients boasted of chariots, we boast of cars. Ancients boasted of horses, we boast of horsepower. But chariots, Mercedes, horses and horsepower all wimp out in the end. God is the only eternal thing. His name is Everlasting.
