Bowen's Daily Meditations
" As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us." - Psalms 103:12.
Among those who read the Bible, how small a proportion, what an insignificant minority are the broken and contrite in heart! How rare a thing it is to see a man who is bowed down beneath a sense of his sinfulness, and who finds it difficult to conceive that there should ever be pardon for him! How small the number of such!
Now see what honor God has put upon these few. A great deal of his word seems to be intended just for them. God, so to speak, passes by the crowds of those who are comfortable in spirit and have an easy faith in the mercy of God, to come to some poor faltering sinner and convince him of the freeness and unmeasured fulness of divine mercy. You and I must often see that the word of God is not troubling itself about us, but about some deeply-convicted, hesitating, trembling soul.
