A Worthy Confession

Home > Gems & Jewels > A Worthy Confession

“I have a lover, Christ, and yet I want love for him.   I have a lovely and desirable Lord, who is love-worthy, and who beggeth my love and heart, and I have nothing to give him.  Dear brother, come further in on Christ, and see a new treasure in him:  come in, and look down and see angels’ wonder, and heaven and earth’s wonder of love, sweetness, majesty, and excellency in him. . .No pen, no words, no image can express to you the loveliness of my only, only Lord Jesus.”

Samuel Rutherford
(1660-1661)
