The Lord hath done great things for us.—Psalms 36:3.

DO I realize, in all their length, and breadth, and depth, and height, what great things the Lord has done, and is continually doing for me? Am I thankful for his daily and providential care—for life, and health, and food, and raiment, and friends, and for all that makes this life pleasant and dear to me? Above all, am I thankful for his word, and his Son, and his Spirit, and all the means of grace—for the pardon of my sins, and the renewal of my heart, and promise of life everlasting in heaven?

Shall I grudge to spend my life for Him, who did not grudge to shed his life-blood for me?—BISHOP BEVERIDGE.

My heaven is to please God and glorify him; to give all to him; to be wholly devoted to his glory. That is the heaven I long for; that is my religion, and that is my happiness.—D. BRAINERD

Pardon from an offended God, Pardon for sins of deepest dye, Pardon bestowed through Jesus' blood, Pardon that brings the rebel nigh! Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free?
