Words of Love
by C. H. Spurgeon
January 25
This is a word of truth, gathered from the experience
of a man of God, and it is tantamount to a promise. What the LORD has done, and is
doing, He will continue to do while the world standeth. The LORD will receive into
His bosom all who come to Him with a sincere confession of their sin; in fact, He
is always on the lookout to discover any that are in trouble because of their faults.
Can we not endorse the language here used? Have we not sinned, sinned personally
so as to say, "I have sinned"? Sinned willfully, having perverted that
which is right? Sinned so as to discover that there is no profit in it but an eternal
loss? Let us, then, go to God with this honest acknowledgment. He asks no more. We
can do no less.
Let us plead His promise in the name of Jesus. He will deliver us from the pit of
hell which yawns for us; He will grant us life and light. Why should we despair?
Why should we even doubt? The LORD does not mock humble souls. He means what He says.
The guilty can be forgiven. Those who deserve execution can receive free pardon.
LORD, we confess, and we pray Thee to forgive!
