Do I love Christ? To those who believe, he is precious; is he precious to me? Do I see infinite beauty in his person? Is he the chief among ten thousands to me, and altogether lovely Do I admire the length and breadth and depth and height of his love? Is the language of my very soul, None but Christ, none but Christ? Is it my grief and shame that I love him no more?
George Burder 1752-1832
Quoted in the book A Pastor's Counsel: Wise Words for Weary, Wounded, and Wandering Sheep
