Then said I, Lo, I come. —Psalm 40: 7.«*^» ^^^s^- * I <0 my great sor-^2^* _|_ row, last Sun-day night Iwas unable topreach. I hadprep a r e d asermon uponthis text, with. f much h ope* ot its useful-ness ; for Iintended it toa supplement to themorning sermon, whichwas a doctrinal evening sermon wasintended to be practical, and to commend thewhole subject to the attention of inquiring sin-ners. I came here feeling quite fit to preach,when an overpowering nervousness oppressedme, and I lost all self-control, and left the pul-pit in anguish. I come hither this morningwith the same subject. I have been turning itover, and wondering why it was so. Peradven-ture, this sermon was not to be preached onthat occasion, because God would teach thepreacher more of his own feebleness, and casthim more fully upon the divine strength. Thathas certainly been the effect upon my own , also, there are some here this morn-ing who were not here last Lords-day evening,whom God intends to bless by the that are fresh to this place, should con-sider the strange circumstance, which neverhappened to me before in the forty years of myministry
