Leigh Richmond, the author of "The Annals of the Poor," was urged to write in an album, "if it were but two lines." He wrote:—
"Can two lines' teach a lesson from above? Yes! one shall speak a volume, God is love!”
Wonderful words indeed. The God we have sinned against. The God of whose glory we come short. "God is love." He loved us while we were far away from Him.
"God commendeth His love toward us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Rom. 5:88But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8).
He has thus shown Himself to be a Savior-God, whose wish it is that all men should be saved.
