Ps. 103:13. >>> >>> Our God should be regarded as a tender, merciful father. The service >>> of >>> God should not be looked upon as a heart-saddening, distressing >>> exercise. >>> It >>> should be a pleasure to worship the Lord and to take part in His work. >>> As >>> the people of God meditate upon the plan of salvation their hearts will >>> be >>> melted in love and gratitude. . . . >>> >>> God would not have His children, for whom so great a salvation has >>> been >>> provided, act as though He were a hard, exacting taskmaster. He is their >>> best friend, and when they worship Him, He expects to be with them to >>> bless >>> and comfort them and fill their hearts with joy and love. The Lord >>> desires >>> His children to take comfort in His service, and to find more pleasure >>> than >>> hardship in His work. The Lord desires that those who come to worship >>> Him >>> shall carry away with them precious thoughts of His care and love that >>> they >>> may be cheered in all the employments of daily life, that they may have >>> grace to deal honestly and faithfully in all things. . . . >>> >>> We dishonor God when we think of Him only as a judge ready to pass >>> sentence upon us, and forget that He is a loving Father. The whole >>> spiritual >>> life is molded by our conceptions of God, and if we cherish erroneous >>> views >>> of His character, our souls will sustain injury. We should see in God >>> one >>> who yearns toward the children of men, longing to do them good. . . . >>> All >>> through the Scriptures, God is represented as one who calls, woos by His >>> tender love, the hearts of His erring children. No earthly parent could >>> be >>> as patient with the faults and mistakes of their children as is God with >>> those He seeks to save. No one could plead more tenderly with the >>> transgressor. No human lips ever poured out more tender entreaty to the >>> wanderer than does He. O shall we not love God, and show our love by >>> humble >>> obedience? Let us have a care for our thoughts, our experiences, our >>> attitude toward God, for all His promises are but the breathings of >>> unutterable love. >>> >>>>From That I May Know Him - Page 263 >>> >>> >>> > >>> >> >> >> > >> > > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Deaf-Blind Inspirational Life Group" group.
