All True Pleasure

“Regeneration is the point from which all true pleasure commences; you never live a cheerful day till you begin to live to God.”

~ John Flavel

“You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

~ Psalm 16:11

A Lively Resemblance

~ John Flavel (1627-1691)
