An ocean of sweetness without one drop of bitterness – Thomas Brooks
“The Lord is my portion, says my soul; therefore I will hope in Him.” Lamentations 3:24
God is a pure and unmixed portion.
God is an unmixed good He has nothing in Him but goodness.
He is an ocean of sweetness without one drop of bitterness.
He is a perfect beauty without the least spot or shadow of deformity.
All other portions are a bittersweet; but God is a rose without prickles.
He is a good, in which there is not the least evil. God is a most clear, bright, shining light; yes, He is all light, and in Him is no darkness at all.
There are no mixtures in God. God is . . .
all light,
all love,
all sweetness,
all goodness,
all kindness,
all graciousness.
There is . . .
no impurity,
no unloveliness,
no bitterness,
nor any darkness
at all in God.
