Meditation
WHAT MANNER OF LOVE If a poor, insolvent debtor, who sees no hope but to end his miserable life in a loathsome jail, is yet unexpectedly called to hear the will of a loving friend, whereby an ample provision is bequeathed him, fully to satisfy all his needs; how must this rejoice his heart! How in the ecstasy of his mind would he be ready to call upon everyone around him to behold the delighted testament! This is but a faint view of the inestimable riches of glory and honor bequeathed to ruin sinners by New Testament love, ratified and sealed by the blood of Jesus. Upon a view of this, who should we be filled with wonder, fired with ecstasy, and our transported hearts should not keep silence! Angels, see and admire! Saints, behold and adore the marvelously great, the inexpressibly glorious, the wonderfully discriminating love of the Father of Jesus! Amazing to tell! Comforting to believe! Transporting to feel! Love, the love of God the Father, has made its way to sinful man; flows through the heart of a crucified Jesus and has reached my poor heart. What terms have we fulfilled, what conditions have we performed to procure this invaluable blessing? O the very question startles the gracious soul! He rejects the thought of his own merits with abhorrence; and cries, Pride, you busy foe, be gone. All, all is freely given, richly bestowed. And am I, vile and unworthy as I am, called the real son of God by adoption, through the faith of Jesus? O thou heavenly Paraclete, thou divine Sanctifier, influence, daily influence my heart, my tongue, my life, to glorify my Father, my Savior, my God! Though I have done nothing to procure this inestimable privilege, yet enjoying this rich grace, love and gratitude demanding corresponding fruits; a holy walk, worthy of the vocation wherewith I am called. Hence, assuredly, will spring another evidence of Gods children; therefore, the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Though our dear Savior went about doing good, yet even this could not gain him the approbation and esteem of the world. Never let disciples expect to be above their Master. The more we follow Jesus, and are conformed to him, as obedient children, the stronger evidence shall we probably have of the worlds enmity, as well as our fathers love. Let us rejoice to follow Jesus, and be glad to imitate him; to do good, though we suffer evil. Be blameless and harmless, as the sons of God. Phil. 2: 15. Wm. Mason Thank you so much for coming to worship God with us today. We hope and pray that you will be blessed among us and that you also will be a blessing to us. If you have any prayer needs or if you'd like to know more about our church, one of our pastors or elders would be very happy to speak with you.
