“See, I Told You So!”
“See, I Told You So!” By Steve Backlund Those who say they can, and those who say they can’t, are both right. The story in Numbers 13 and 14 illustrates this. The ten spies said they were not able to overcome the giants in the Promised Land, while Joshua and Caleb said they were. Each group ultimately experienced what they believed and what they said. Both could have said, “See, I told you so. What I believed was the truth.” We are called to be thermostats, not thermometers.
