Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live;
and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Isaiah 55:3
"The evidences that Jesus of Nazareth is the Savior of men have increased with every successive generation, and yet millions refuse to believe on him, and accept the relief he offers their guilty souls.
Jesus comes to those who are groaning under affliction, and offers to bear their grief,
--but they turn from him and hug their cankering cares to their hearts.
He comes to those who are disappointed, whose hopes of this world have been crushed, and promises to give them peace and happiness if they will put their trust in him;
--but they shut their hearts against his sympathy and refuse to be comforted."
