Living Commentary!
Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually. – Psalm 119:117
We are poor, weak, inconsistent creatures if left but a little to ourselves. When I think how cold, dull and heartless I have been; how often I have wandered, how often trifled upon the brink of temptation; when I consider what powerful, vigilant, and subtle enemies are combined against me; and how many professors have fallen on my right hand and my left – I am amazed at the greatness of His mercy in preserving me! I am a living commentary, that there is forgiveness with Him – and that He is able to save to the uttermost!
John Newton
