“The love of God in Christ is not barren kindness.
It is a love that reaches from everlasting to everlasting: from love in choosing us, to love in glorifying us.
In all the miseries of the world, one beam of this lovingkindness of the Lord will scatter all.”
–Richard Sibbes, “Divine Meditations and Holy Contemplations,” The Works of Richard Sibbes, vol. 7 (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1638/2001), 7: 187.
