Every blessing we have must be held as from God, and for God–to be disposed of according to His sovereign will and pleasure.
“No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
and no mind has imagined,
what God has prepared for those who love Him!” 1 Corinthians 2:9
Brethren! At present you can have but little conception of the incomprehensible blessings which God has conferred upon you. For you cannot see one thousandth part of your guilt, or conceive one thousandth part of the glory that awaits you!
Can you comprehend the wonders of redeeming love and mercy? These have been given to you in the gift of God’s only beloved Son for your redemption!.
What indeed you already know, is abundantly sufficient to fill your souls with unutterable joy, and your lips with incessant praise!
But what will your feelings be, at the instant of the departure of your soul from this earthly tabernacle. Or of its admission into the presence of your God! Then you will fully see the depth of misery from which you have been redeemed. And see the height of glory to which you are exalted! You will then behold your Redeemer face to face, and join in the eternal praises of your adorable Savior.
“And they will reign for ever and ever!” Revelation 22:5
Go on, then, with Heaven ever in your view. Live in the sweet anticipation of that unimaginable glory that awaits you! This will be the commencement of Heaven upon earth, to your souls!
“May you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should–how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is! May you experience the love ofChrist, though it is too great to understand fully!” Ephesians 3:18-19
