Our love is not the cause of His, but His is the cause of ours; and it is not merely His loving us, but the shedding of it abroad in our hearts by His Spirit which draws out our love to Him; for though He loved us, yet if He had not some way or another manifested it to us and overcome our hearts with it, we would still have remained enemies to Him; but His giving us the sense and perception of it in our hearts is what has drawn us to Himself and will keep us there.  (John Gill; 1697-1771)

Believer, stay your soul on the rock of the promises.  They are as immovable as He who speaks them.  At the set moment, you shall march in triumph to your Canaan.  (Henry Law, 1797-1884)
