Fragment.

THERE were no circumstances in which Christ was ever found where power, love, goodness, and truth were not readily in exercise. There was no weariness, if a poor desolate sinner came. No matter what company He was in, He was always accessible to their hearts; but there was no sympathy for Him. No love and goodness met Him in going through this world; His heart was utterly a stranger in it; yet all sympathy for others. If He had to answer for Himself before the chief priests who were hunting Him to death, the moment the cock crew His eye was upon Peter — never wearied. No circumstances He was in could ever touch the spring of grace and goodness that was in Him.
