John Bunyan:
Sometimes when my heart has been hard, dead, slothful, blind, and senseless, which indeed are sad frames for a poor Christian to be in, yet at such a time, when I have been in such a case, then has the blood of Christ, the precious blood of Christ, the admirable blood of the God of Heaven, that run out of His body when it did hang on the Cross, so softened, livened, quickened, and enlightened my soul, that truly, reader, I can say, O it makes me wonder!
The Doctrine of the Law and Grace Unfolded (London, 1708), 183.
I swear I'll be back to write about what's been going on in heart and home very soon...but for now, know that this verse is quite defining for me right now.
