Aside from William Gurnall, John Owen is my favorite Puritan author. Tonight being Friday night, what better way to end the work week than a quote from Owen to think upon and be challenged as we head into the weekend…
If I have observed anything by experience, it is this: a man may take the measure of his growth and decay in grace according to his thoughts and meditations upon the person of Christ, and the glory of Christ’s Kingdom, and of His love.
—John Owen
So… how much of your thought life is spent meditating upon Christ and the things of God? If the answer is “very little”, than let me warn you that things are not well with your soul!
