A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

Proof of Sonship

None but the godly are capable of desertion. Wicked men know not what God’s love means, nor what it is to want it…You fear you are not God’s child because you are deserted.

The Lord cannot be said to withdraw His love from the wicked, because they never had it. The being deserted evidences you to be a child of God. How could you complain that God has  estranged Himself, if you had not sometimes received smiles and tokens of love from Him? [Thomas Watson]
