God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The enjoyment of God is the only happiness with which our souls can be satisfied. To go to heaven, fully to enjoy God, is infinitely better than the most pleasant accommodations here. Fathers and mothers, husbands, wives, or children, or the company of earthly friends, are but shadows, but God is the substance. These are but scattered beams, but God is the sun. These are but streams. But God is the ocean.

a smooth mixture. Split cake in half. Spread both halves with jam and
