What They Said

"The consideration of the abundance of mercies that God bestows and we enjoy.  It is a saying of Luther:  "The sea of God's mercies should swallow up all our particulate afflictions."  Name any particule affliction that is upon you:  There is a sea of mercy to swallow it up.  If you pour a pailful of water on the floor of your house, it makes a great show, but if you throw it into the sea, there is no sign of it."
