Is it a small thing in your eyes to be loved by the God(head) – to be the son, the spouse, the love, the delight of the King of glory?
Fellow believer, grasp this, and think about it:
you will be eternally embraced in the arms of that love which is from everlasting, and will extend to everlasting-
think of the power (dynamis) which brought the Son of God’s love (agape) from heaven to earth, from earth to the cross, from the cross to the grave, from the grave to glory – that powerful love which was weary, hungry, tempted, scorned, scourged, which fasted, prayed, taught, healed, wept , which was buffeted, spat upon, crucified, pierced -, sweated, bled, died – and rose again. That love will eternally embrace you.
Richard Baxter (1615-1691)
