Christ: All I Have Or Want!

Charles Spurgeon wrote:
It is so sweet to look at the Crucified One again, and say, "I have nothing but Thee, my Lord, no confidence but Thee. If You are not accepted as my substitute then I must perish. If God's appointed Saviour is not enough then I have no other. But I know You are the Father's well-beloved, and I am accepted in Thee. You are all I have or want."
Charles Spurgeon, Pictures From Pilgrim's Progress (Pasadena, TX: Pilgrim, 1992), 81.
