I ran across this excerpt from Jonathan Edwards' Personal Narrative. It speaks so eloquently of the value Edwards saw in the Word of God:
“Oftentimes in reading [the Bible], every word seemed to touch my heart. I felt a harmony between something in my heart, and those sweet and powerful words. I seemed often to see so much light exhibited in every sentence, and such refreshing food communicated, that I could not get along in reading; often dwelling long on one sentence, to see the wonders contained in it; yet almost every sentence seemed to be full of wonders."
I pray that God will so move in my life that I will discover and taste and relish the wonders in every sentence of God's Word, the Bible.
I am the senior pastor of University Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Orlando, Florida. I've been married 33 years to Suzy. We have four kids (three of whom are married) and four grandchildren, plus one more on the way.
