A Dull Jade

"He that comes to Christ cannot, it is true, always get on as fast as he would. Poor coming soul, thou art like the man that would ride full gallop whose horse will hardly trot. Now the desire of his mind is not to be judged of by the slow pace of the dull jade he rides on, but by the hitching and kicking and spurring as he sits on his back. Thy flesh is like this dull jade, it will not gallop after Christ, it will be backward though thy soul and heaven lie at stake." -John Bunyan-

Awe Fill

Two things fill the mind with awe the more and more you think on them: (1) the starry hosts above and (2) the moral law within.
