Motives To Love Jesus

MOTIVES TO LOVE JESUS by Thomas Doolittle (1630-1707)

#1. CAN YOU FIND A MORE EXCELLENT OBJECT FOR YOUR LOVE THAN JESUS? If you search through the whole creation, could you find any like him? Are riches, honors, pleasures, or other relationships comparable to Jesus, whom you ought to love supremely? Should not the highest good be the best object of your love? Can you love lesser things, and not the greatest good? Is not all the goodness in the creature but as a drop to the sea, as a candle to the sun, as a speck of sand to a mountain- when compared to the goodness that is in Jesus? If David were worth ten thousand other men, is not Jesus, David's Lord, better than all the world?

Dear sister Coconut

Thank you for this post

The article Motives to Love is beautiful.....

You were lost, but Jesus saved you! You were ignorant, but Jesus taught you! You were sick, but Jesus healed you! You were polluted, but Jesus cleansed you! You were a captive to sin and Satan, and Jesus freed you! You were an enemy of God, and Jesus reconciled you! You were dead, and Jesus gave you spiritual life! Oh, you never found one so suitable for you! Now, even now, he should be loved by you. O, Jesus is the most excellent object for your love, and you should no longer withhold your devotion from him
(from the article Motives to Love, Thomas Doolittle)

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us 1 John 4:10

If I am truly searching for spiritual truth and I hear the gospel message, I must respond with a hearty "Yes!" Its not as if I'm running away from something. I'm running toward an awesome God and his love.

Nods here... I read it through Sister.

Oftentimes when i continue to search for things, I always ask the Lord, "Lord if I have you, what am i still seeking for?" And yes I agree with Bro. SLE.

There's a beautiful song that says...

There is none like You
No else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity Lord
And find, there is none like you...

God bless you sister coconut..
