REFLECTION…
.
The Lord’s commands are our best advisers.
We learn from them – better than in any other way –
on how we ought to act.
.
The doctrines of grace,
the truths of the Gospel,
are delightful and pleasing to the true Christian.
Like honey, they have a nourishing nature and refreshing virtue,
but their sweetness to the yearning soul is beyond that of honey
– it is incomparable.
.
God’s commandments are our best and most valuable inheritance,
which I must resolve never to part with,
because with their promise of salvation and eternal life
they bring true joy and delight to the humble heart.
