Real Love

Listen from:
I once put the question, "Do you love Jesus?" to a little blind boy I knew. Turning his sightless eyes towards heaven, he said fervently, "You don't know how I love Him, or you'd never ask! They have not made the right word yet to tell of half my love, but I'm just waiting-waiting till I have the 'new song' put into my mouth, and then I'll tell it to Him."
The same little boy was one day at the house of a friend, and a little girl with whom he was playing said very sadly to him, "I am so sorry you cannot see me!"
"Ha!" said Ritchie, "that's no loss. I can see Jesus the 'altogether lovely,' and you can't beat that."
Yes, "He is altogether lovely. This is my Beloved, and this is my Friend." Sos. 5:16. Turn to Him today, and "know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge." Eph. 3:1919And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. (Ephesians 3:19).
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.
