Book Description

Excerpt from Considerations Upon Christian Truths and Christian Duties Digested Into Meditations for Every Day in the Year, Vol. 2 Consider, thirdly, the immense treasures of grace, and the everlasting glory, that may be continually stored up by a good employment of time. There is not one moment, of all the time of this mortal life, in which, if well employed, we may not pur chase a new degree of eternal bliss: now, every new degree of eternal bliss is something infinitely more precious and more de sirable than all the riches and all the kingdoms of the earth What a loss it is, then, to lose any of these happy moments! It is losing so many immense and eternal treasures; - a loss so great, that, if the happy state of the blessed in heaven could admit of any such thing as grief, they would certainly regret to all eternity all those moments of the time of their mortal pilgrim age, which they had not employed to the best advantage; when they shall clearly see, in the light of God, what an immense increase of eternal glory and happiness they might have acquired by the due employment of all those precious moments.
