The real glory of a nation comes from its people: the
individual persons’ intelligence, honesty, industriousness, and Christian
Character; without these a country will lose its liberty. This glory is not
assured in having an abundance of art, libraries, galleries, or wealth in a
nation’s cities; but rather, in the loyalty, industriousness, and upright
character of the people. The sound of an industrious peoples’ work brings
dignity, honor, and exultation to their country. Similarly, the nation’s safety
is not just founded upon the wisdom or bravery of its citizens, but the
righteous character of the people. In their Christian homes, safety is created.
It stands for the right things and receives the blessings of truth and
righteousness in return. The genuine glory of a nation is also clearly modeled
in the villages, with their Christian schools, restless prayer, and faith in
God–all these bring a nation glory.
