He smiles,–He weeps.  That dark brow unbends.  Those withdrawn arms are stretched out.  Thou art in His embrace.  He cannot refrain Himself.  He makes Himself known to thee–to thee, the chief of sinners—to whom He rejoices affectionately to say–I am Jesus, thy Savior, thy friend, thy brother.”  (R. C. Candlish;1806-1873)
