So saith a gracious soul, though honour is not, and riches are not, and health is not, and friends are not, etc., it is enough that Christ is, that he reigns, conquers, and triumphs. Christ is the pot of manna, the cruse of oil, a bottomless ocean of all comfort, content, and satisfaction. He that hath him wants nothing; he that wants him enjoys nothing.
Thomas Brooks, The Complete Works of Thomas Brooks Volume 1, (Nichol 1866 [1676]) pg 103
