    We Would See Him, for We Love Him

    For even as saith the Scripture, having not seen Him, we love Him (1 Peter 1:8); and, because we love Him, we would see Him. Having not seen Him, we love Him, because He first loved us. We love Him because He loved us and gave Himself for us. We love Him for His gentle pity for sinners such as we are. We love Him for His cheerful mercy to men so fearfully undeserving as are we. We love Him because, in “the great love wherewith He loved us,” He “His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness.” We love Him for His lofty humanity. We love Him for His “profound reverence for infinite goodness and truth.” We love Him for the moral force and the benign influence of His mighty character. We love Him for His perfect goodness. For this cause would we see Him. We would see Him because of the character He bears, And all the forms of love He wears.”WWSJ 4.1
