‘Tis for You
Reflect on these words about the passion of the Lord Jesus:
'Tis you that God entertained thoughts of restoring after your miserable fall into dreadful depravity and corruption, and into danger of the dreadful misery that unavoidably follows upon it;
'tis for you in particular that God gave his Son, yea, his only Son, and sent him into the world;
'tis for you that the Son of God so freely gave himself;
'tis for you that he was born, died, rose again and ascended, and intercedes;
'tis to you that there the free application of the fruit of these things is made: all this is done perfectly and altogether freely, without any of your desert, without any of your righteousness or strength; wherefore, let your life be spent in praise to God.
