A frequent access to Christ, in a way of meditation, cannot but warm the soul in spiritual comforts. When the sun in the spring draws pear our part of the earth, how do all things congratulate its approach! The earth looks green, the trees shoot forth, the plants revive, the birds sing sweetly, the face of all things smiles upon us, and all the creatures below rejoice. Christians! if you would but draw near, and look on this Sun of righteousness, Jesus Christ, what a spring of joy would it be within you ? How would your graces be fresh and green ? How would you forget your winter-sorrows ? How early would you rise ( as those birds in the spring) to sing the praise of our great Creator, and dear Redeemer.
