From a prayer called, “Spiritual Helps” in The Valley of Vision:
It is amazing love, that thou has sent thy Son to suffer in my stead, that thou hast added the Spirit to teach, comfort, guide, that thou hast allowed the ministry of angels to wall me round; All heaven subserves the welfare of a poor worm.
That’s an amazing thought!
I use a very worn leather-bound version of the The Valley of Vision. Unfortunately, it’s no longer available. But here it is in a nice paperback: Valley of Vision: A collection of Puritan Prayers & Devotions

Yeah, something to think about. But calling me a worm? Perhaps I am.
I’ve been putting off The Valley of Vision. I need to get it.
Yes you are. And yes you should.
