Christ in the circle of His disciples would make them so happy that none would remark upon the [lack] of John or Peter. Christ as "Lamb in the midst of the throne" is able to give intense joy to millions upon millions, His look, voice, smile, presence. Oh to see "the King in His beauty!" We shall be sick of love, and yet find all health in that love. "All my springs are in Thee."
It will be ecstasy to have made this attainment, to love the Lord our God with all our heart and soul and strength and mind . . . Those who have real love to Christ always wish they had more.
Of all things beware of a cold heart.
Christ will not let anything interfere with your love for Him. He says, "I am all for you, and you must be all for Me."
Andrew Bonar, Heavenly Springs (Carlisle: Banner Of Truth, 1986), 82-83.
