If dwelling inside the veil, I say, Oh, the immeasurableness of the love of God in what He has done! How can I repay Him? I am preserved from ten thousand things which would have affected me if not there. I am in another place; as one said, "I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down." I am not trying to squeeze what I can out of this or that little circumstance for myself. I am saying, Why, God has given me everything He could give in giving me His Son. What return can I make Him? Cannot I give up this or that little thing for Him who gave His Son for me? It makes it seem as nothing. It is because we are not dwelling there that some little thing seems very great to give up; or perhaps some little disappointment comes; then we shrink from the cross, and we are not ready to rise and go forth to meet it because not living in heaven, not occupied with all the vastness of the blessing that is ours.
