"His kindness towards us" Ephesians 2:7

WHAT a subject is the kindness of God towards us! Let us think of it, as it appears on the place and circumstances of our birth; in happy Britain, not in a heathen land. In our education and preservation. Especially in our regeneration, that we were born again not of the will of the flesh, nor of blood, but of God. How many, born in the same place, about the same time, and educated in the same school, have been allowed to pass out of time into eternity, carnal, and under the curse of God; or are living in that state! Why were we distinguished? Called by grace! Justified from all thing in the righteousness of Jesus! Kept by the power of God! Supplied according to the promises! Walking with God! Looking for the coming of Jesus with hope, holy longings, and steady faith! Having the promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come! Warranted to say, "All things are mine, for I am Christ’s and Christ is God’s." Oh, how great is the goodness of our God! How unsearchable His grace! His kindness to us is wonderful!

Who can have greater cause to sing,

Who greater cause to bless,

Than we, the children of a King,

Than we who Christ possess?

Our all we to His kindness owe,

And grateful praise should ever flow.
