“If you would have clear and irrefragable for a perpetual joy, a glory and a defense, the unwavering confidence, "I am Thy child," go to God's throne, and lie down at the foot of it, and let the first thought be, "My Father in heaven;" and that will brighten, that will establish, that will make omnipotent in your life, the witness of the Spirit that you are the child of God.” IfsFirstsChildrenJoySpiritLyingFatherHeavenClearFeetGloryDefenseWitnessPerpetualThronesChild Of GodOmnipotentFather In HeavenUnwavering Author:Alexander MacLaren
