J. R. Miller on the Patience of Jesus

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , , | Posted On Tuesday, December 3, 2019 at 5:30 AM

"Think what patience Jesus had with his disciples, and then read, "As I have loved you." Think how he bore with their faults and failings, with their dulness and slowness, with their unbelief and unfaithfulness, with their denials and betrayals. "As I have loved you, that ye also love one another." How it shames our touchiness, our quick firing up when a brother seems to fail a little in courtesy, or speaks a little quickly ! Was that the way Jesus loved his friends?"

"The world is one vast hospital. Jesus is the only physician in it; he has healed thousands, he will heal thousands more; but multitudes reject him, they fancy they can do without him; they think that they are whole, and therefore do not need a physician."

Alexander Smellie on the Love of Jesus

“The love of Jesus bends very low. It travels from heaven to earth, and there is no science which can compute that distance. It seeks out the chief of sinners, and there is no philanthropy which is not poor beside that surpassing generosity. It is not ashamed even of me—me in my remoteness and my sin.”
