“You will not get to steal quietly into heaven, into Christ's company, without a conflict and a cross. I find crosses to be Christ's carved work that he marks out for us and that with crosses he portraits us to his own image, cutting away pieces of our ill and corruption. Lord cut - Lord carve - Lord wound - Lord do anything that may perfect thy Father's image in us and make us ready for glory.” MaySufferingFatherHeavenChristPerfectCompanyLordPiecesCuttingReadyConflictGloryCrossesMarkIllCorruptionWoundsStealingPortraitsAffliction Author:Samuel Rutherford
