He has guided our feet there!
from Mary Winslow's, "Life in Jesus"
Broad is the road to destruction, and many go
therein; narrow is the road that leads to glory,
and there are few, comparatively, who find it,
happy few! And, oh, what a mercy that He has
guided our feet there!
Our souls and bodies ought to be devoted to Him,
to glorify Him for His distinguishing grace! For what
are we more than others, that He should fix His
everlasting love upon us while we were dead in
trespasses and in sins?
Blessed be God, who passes by so many, and who
has deigned to look upon us who were lying as others,
dead in sin. Infinite in sovereignty, infinite in goodness,
infinite in power! Why He passes by some and calls
others is only known to Himself.
But He will have mercy upon whom He will have mercy.
Blessed, forever blessed, be His adored name!
Oh, for grace to serve Him better, and to love Him more!
