One blessing after another!
“From the fullness of His grace we have all receivedย one blessing after another!“ย John 1:16ย
Our Lord Jesus is ever giving–and does not for a solitary instant withdraw His hand.ย
As long as there is a vessel of grace not yet full to the brim–the oil shall not be stopped.ย
He is a sun ever-shining.ย
He is manna always falling round the camp.ย
He is a rock in the desert, ever sending out streams of life from His smitten side.ย
The rain of His grace is always dropping.ย
The river of His bounty is ever-flowing.ย
The well-spring of His love is constantly overflowing.ย
As our King can never die–so His grace can never fail.ย
Daily we pluck His fruit, and daily His branches bend down to our hand with aย fresh store of mercy.ย
Who has ever returned from His door, unblessed?
Who has ever risen from His table, unsatisfied?ย
Who has ever come from His bosom, un-imparadised?ย
His mercies are new every morning–and fresh every evening.ย
Who can know the number of His benefits, or recount His infinite bounties?ย
Every sand which drops from the glass of time–is but the tardy follower of a myriad of mercies. The wings of our hours are covered with the silver of His kindness, and with the yellow gold of His affection. Theย river of timeย bears from theย mountains of eternity–theย golden sands of His favor.ย
Who can count theย dust of the benefitsย which He bestows on His redeemed people, or number of His mercies towards us? How shall my soul extol Him–who daily loads us with benefits, and who crowns us with loving-kindness?ย
O that myย praiseย could be as ceaseless as Hisย bounty!ย O miserable tongue, how can you be silent?ย
“Praise the Lord, O my soul!ย Do not forget all ofย Hisย benefits!”ย Psalm 103:2ย
