Communion With the Father

Communion With the Father

“The love of the Father is freely given to us.”
“He loves us because He wanted to love us.”
“If anything in us or on our part could stop God loving us, the He would long ago have turned away from us.”
“It because His love is fixed and unchangeable that he Father shows us infinite patience and forbearance.”
"You must, then, so believe as to receive the love of the Father.”
"You do not hold communion with God in anything until you receive it by faith.”
“You need to believe that God loves you, that His heart is filled with love to you and accept His word for it.”
“You will never experience the sweetness of His love until you receive it.”
"You must, then, continually remind yourself that God loves you and embraces you with His free eternal love.”
“When the Lord is, by His word, presented as Father who loves you, then think about it and accept it.”
“Then embrace Him by faith and let your heart be filled with His love.”
“Set your whole heart to receive His love and let your heart be bound with the cords of this love.”

(Communion with God, John Owen)
