神我們救主的恩慈和他向人所施的慈愛……(多34

救主與他所愛的民相交是一件最甜蜜的事!再也沒有什麽能比神的靈把人帶到喜樂的沃原更加快樂的事了。讓我們現在沉心回想救主大愛的歷史和他無數奇妙之愛的工作,這一把都把人的心與基督連結一起,幷把新人的思想和情感與耶穌的心結合起來。我們每逢想到這種奇妙的大愛,幷看到教會的丈夫把他萬古以來所有的豐富都賜給她,我們的心就必快樂驚訝。誰能擔當這種愛的重量呢?聖靈所給人的,常是超過人所能容納的;若我們能完全看明這事,就必會欣喜若狂!若我們的心有聰明能察辨救主一切的恩典,有智慧能估計它們的價值,有時間來細想它們的話——當然在來世我們能——那末我們現在就必更加親近耶穌了。但誰能想像到這種相交生活的甜蜜呢?這種甜蜜雖還未進入人的心中,但神早已爲愛他的人預備好了。讓我們打開我們的約瑟的倉房,看他爲我們所儲存的豐富恩典吧!這樣必使我們驚异得生出愛他的心來。我們藉著信心,好象是對著鏡子觀看所返照出來的神無限的珍寶一樣,是模糊不清的,但當我們親眼看到屬天之物時,我們的心就必在與主相交的洪水中沐浴自己了!到那時我們要爲愛我們的大恩人,耶穌基督,我們的主,引吭高歌。他對我們的愛是奇妙的,幷且超過了婦人的愛。

主愛口舌真說不盡,主愛口舌真說不盡,耶穌向我所存恩愛,口舌真說不盡。

"The kindness and love of God our Saviour." -- Titus 3:4

How sweet it is to behold the Saviour communing with His own beloved people! There can be nothing more delightful than, by the Divine Spirit, to be led into this fertile field of delight. Let the mind for an instant consider the history of the Redeemer's love, and a thousand enchanting acts of affection will suggest themselves, all of which have had for their design the weaving of the heart into Christ, and the intertwisting of the thoughts and emotions of the renewed soul with the mind of Jesus. When we meditate upon this amazing love, and behold the all-glorious Kinsman of the Church endowing her with all His ancient wealth, our souls may well faint for joy. Who is he that can endure such a weight of love? That partial sense of it which the Holy Spirit is sometimes pleased to afford, is more than the soul can contain; how transporting must be a complete view of it! When the soul shall have understanding to discern all the Saviour's gifts, wisdom wherewith to estimate them, and time in which to meditate upon them, such as the world to come will afford us, we shall then commune with Jesus in a nearer manner than at present. But who can imagine the sweetness of such fellowship? It must be one of the things which have not entered into the heart of man, but which God hath prepared for them that love Him. Oh, to burst open the door of our Joseph's granaries, and see the plenty which He hath stored up for us! This will overwhelm us with love. By faith we see, as in a glass darkly, the reflected image of His unbounded treasures, but when we shall actually see the heavenly things themselves, with our own eyes, how deep will be the stream of fellowship in which our soul shall bathe itself! Till then our loudest sonnets shall be reserved for our loving benefactor, Jesus Christ our Lord, whose love to us is wonderful, passing the love of women.
