“The more I understand of the character of God, as revealed in Scripture, the more shall I see that he must be sovereign, and the more shall I rejoice from my inmost heart that He is so.   It was God’s sovereign will that fixed the time of my birth.  It is the same will that has fixed the day of my death.  And was not the day of my conversion fixed as certainly by that same will?”  Horatius Bonar (1808-1889)
