I and my whole cross are wholly Christ’s

"I think it is a sweet thing, that Christ saith of my cross, Half mine, and that he divideth these sufferings with me and taketh the larger share to himself; nay, that I, and my whole cross, are wholly Christ’s." -- Rutherford, Samuel, and Ellen S. Lister. The Loveliness of Christ: Extracts from the Letters of Samuel Rutherford. Edinburgh: Banner of Truth Trust, 2007, 24. [Letter CCXLII, 7 Sept. 1637]
