(Letters of John Newton) "The Lord is slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion!" Numbers 14:18 What a family has He to bear with! Those whom he has graciously saved, have secret idols in their hearts! His friends hold a secret correspondence with His enemies! His children repine against Him, and quarrel one with another! His servants (ministers) serve themselves! "But You, O Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness!" Psalm 86:1
