Devotional: Do you think, Christian, that you can measure the love of Christ?

Do you think, Christian, that you can measure the love of Christ? Think of what His love has brought you--justification, adoption, sanctification, eternal life! The riches of His goodness are unsearchable; you will never be able to tell them out or even conceive them.

Oh, the breadth of the love of Christ! Shall such a love as this have half our hearts? Shall it have a cold love in return? Shall Jesus' marvelous lovingkindness and tender care meet with but faint response and tardy acknowledgment? O my soul, tune your harp to a glad song of thanksgiving! Go to your rest rejoicing, since you aren’t a desolate (solitary, joyless, and without hope) wanderer, but a beloved child, watched over, cared for, supplied, and defended by your Lord. ...CH Spurgeon image by Scott Schram
