"As the Father hath loved Me, so have I loved you."
What a blessed secret for the heart to cherish as it passes through circumstances of trial and sorrow here-the greatest Person in the universe loves me, and nothing can separate me from His love! Surely there is an excellency about "the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord" which throws all the attractions of the world into the shade!
On such love, my soul, still ponder-
Love so vast, so full, so free.
Say, while lost in holy wonder,
"Why, O Lord, such love to me?"
Matchless Lover!
Grace shall reign eternally.
