Spiritual Life the Gift of Christ – Charles Spurgeon

THE poor mariner’s wife rushes down to the beach in the storm, and see, the waves at last have washed up her lost beloved, the father of the babe which is hanging at her breast. He is dead. The ungenerous sea has made a wife a widow. Oh, what would she not give, if she had it, to restore life once more to that well-beloved form! but life is a blessing her prayers and tears cannot obtain. Herein is Jesus glorified, for he gives life to those who are spiritually dead, and if any one of you are weeping today over an unconverted husband, a child who is dead in trespasses and sins, a sister or a brother unsaved, Jesus can come to you and give life to your dear ones in answer to your prayers. He is himself the resurrection and the life.
