"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."
Jeremiah Burroughs
(The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, Pg 209)
