Evidence of Our Hardness

September 14, 2006

[EDITED BLOG]

"Impenitent, unhumbled hearts are therefore not reclaimed by God’’s rebukes because they think themselves wronged by them. Evidence of our hardness is that we are more concerned about our sufferings than our sins” [Matthew Henry]

Show me, O Love, Thy wounds that I have made!

Yes, Thou forgivest, but with all forgiving

Canst not renew mine innocence again:

Make Thou, O Christ, a dying of my living,

Purge from the sin but never from the pain!
