His rule over us is the gentlest we can conceive. It hardly makes itself felt at all. His omnipre- Bence is like the pressure of the air, needful to health and life, yet imperceptible. His government is one of love. His very penalties we have to wring from Him by repeated treasons, and when they come they are so disguised in mercy, that it is hard to discern between chastisement and 13 R 191 OUR MEANS OP LOVING GOD. love. His facility in pardoning is something beyond com pare. He seems to compr...omise His own regal dignity bj the profuse liberality with which He uses His prerogative of mercy. He pardons not only after the nervousness of trial and the ignominy of conviction, but He pardons us without mentioning it, without boasting of it, without warning us, without getting the credit of pardoning, often as in baptism, and with forgotten sins, without even our acknowledgment of guilt. Often He seems to forgive be- fore the offence is complete. We sin, half knowing we shall be forgiven. As to the consequences of our sins to others, He hardly ever lays on us the responsibility of attending to them.
