This Love Is Mine!
Christ's love to his people love is no new thing.
He loved us long before we were born.
When his foreknowledge sketched us in his mind's eye,
he beheld us in love. He proved his love, too.
It was not merely contemplative love, but it was
Practical Love, for he died for us before we knew
anything of him, or were even here to learn about him.
His love is of such a wondrous kind that he always will love us.
When heaven and earth have passed away, and the heavens
shall be rolled up, or be put away like a worn-out
vesture, he will still love us as he loved us at the first.
The Greatest Wonder to Me Is That this Unpurchasable Love,
This Unending Love Is Mine! and you, my
brethren and
sisters, can always say, each one of you, if you have been
regenerated, "This Love Is Mine! the Lord Jesus Christ loves
me with a love I never could have purchased!"
