O My people - This one tender word, twice repeated , contains in one a whole volume of reproof. It sets before the eyes God’s choice of them of His free grace, and the whole history of His loving-kindness, if so they could be ashamed of their thanklessness and turn to Him. “Mine,” He says, “ye are by creation, by Providence, by great deliverances and by hourly love and guardianship, by gifts of nature, the world, and grace; such things have I done for thee; what against thee? ‘what evil have I done unto thee?’” “Thy foot did not swell these forty years” Deuteronomy 8:4, for He upbears in all ways where He leads. Wherein have I wearied thee? for “His commandments are not grievious” 1 John 5:3. Thou hast been weary of Me, O Israel, God says by Isaiah, “I have not wearied thee with incense; thou hast wearied Me with thine iniquities” Isaiah 43:22-24. return to 'Top of Page'
