Napoleon Bonaparte was the greatest general of his day and one of the greatest of all time. He was also an astute politician with an
unconquerable will to win. His goal was to rule the world and he
seemed well on his way to achieving that goal.
History records how he boasted, "Russia next, then Britain, and
Napoleon shall rule the world."
When leading his army enroute to conquer Russia, one tiny snowflake fell on Napoleon, "Then another, and another, and another, and they kept on falling until Napoleon's proud army was reeling back, broken and defeated" not by an enemy's army nor even a single shot, but by a mass of tiny snowflakes. Napoleon's response? "God almighty was too much for me."
It's comforting to know that God is in control and that this world
and the life of each of us who put our trust in him are in his hands.
