Praise God—it is almost Sunday! We *get* to go back to church again! In or-der to help us get ready for Worship, here is Thomas Watson, from his, "The One Thing Necessary" treatise. . . .
"The seasons of grace though they are precious, are not permanent. Abused mercies will like Noah's dove—they take their wings and fly from us. . . . Gos-pel blessings are very sweet, but very swift. 'Now they are hid from your eyes' (Luke 19:42). We know not how soon the golden candlestick may be remov-ed."There is a time when the Spirit is done striving. There are certain spring tides of the Spirit, and these being neglected, possibly we may never see another tide come in. When conscience is done speaking, usually the Spirit is done striving.
"The loss of gospel opportunities will be the hell of hell. When a sinner shall at the last day think with himself, 'Oh, what might I have been! I might have been as rich as the angels. as rich as heaven could make me. I had a season . . . but I lost it.’ . . . "
