Today’s Quote
Faith may be the most abundant virtue in a believer, but love is the most evident in God.
— Charles Spurgeon
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
An honored saint was once so overwhelmed with a revelation of the Lord’s love that, feeling his mortal body couldn’t take any more of such bliss, he cried, "Hold, Lord, it’s enough, it’s enough!" In Heaven, we will be able to bring the bottomless well of love to our lips and drink forever. Ah, that will
be love indeed—overflowing our souls forever in our Father’s house above! Who can describe the joy, the raptures, the amazement that love will produce in us? And who can imagine the sweetness of the song or the speed of obedience that will express our perfected love in Heaven?

There’s a place in Mentone called Primrose Valley, not because there are no other plants there, but because in season it’s filled with that lovely flower. The Christian is said to live a life of faith, not because they lack other graces—for they possess
them all—but because faith is often the most abundant virtue in them. Similarly, God is said to be love, though He is also powerful and just, because love is most abundant in Him and most evident in all His dealings.
