Back to John Flavel's "The Method of Grace"


The Lord makes use even of your sins and 
infirmities
 to do you good. By these, He . . .
humbles you,
beats you off from self-dependence,
makes you admire the riches of grace,
makes you long more ardently for heaven,
causes you to entertain sweeter thoughts of death. 

Does not the Lord then make blessed fruits to spring 
up from such a bitter rootO the blessed chemistry 
of heaven
—to extract such mercies out of such miseries!
