The Wonder of Divine Love
Jeremiah 31:3
The LORD has appeared of old to me, saying, Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love…


Is it not an unheard-of wonder that so strong a stream of infinite love should run underground for so many years, and that so many rebellions all that while should not dam it up, but that it should hold on its course uninterrupted, and work out all that had obstructed the current of it, and at last bubble up at a time designed, and save, and wash, and purify the wretched, defiled creature?

( T. Goodwin.)
