An Holy Ecstasy of Wonder

“That God should pass by millions, and the lot of his electing love should fall upon you; that the Scripture, like the pillar of cloud, should have a dark side to others, but a light side to you; that to others it should be a dead letter, but to you the savor of life; that Christ should not only be revealed to you, but in you; Gal. i. 16; – how should you be in an holy ecstasy of wonder, and wish that you had hearts of seraphims burning in love to God, and the voices of angels to make heaven ring with God’s praises!”

 

~Thomas Watson (from The Bible and The Closet, pg 44)
