Holiness--as I then wrote down some of my contemplations on it--appeared to me to be of a sweet, calm, pleasant, charming, serene nature, which brought an inexpressible purity, brightness, peacefulness, ravishment to the soul; in other words, that it made the soul like a field or garden of God, with all manner of pleasant fruits and flowers, all delightful and undisturbed, enjoying a sweet calm and the gentle vivifying beams of the sun. ~Jonathan Edwards
Streams in the Desert
by Mrs. Chas. E. Cowman
How great to be able to begin each day with my soul "all delightful and undisturbed". My morning devotions and morning coffee both help get me off to a good start in that direction! Time for a second cup!
