Wish I could remember this...

"Christ endured the great shower of wrath, the black and dismal hours of displeasure for sin. That which falls on us is a sunshine shower, warmth with wet, wet with the warmth of his love to make us fruitful and humble... That which the believer suffers for sin is not penal, arising from a vindictive justice, but medicinal, arising from a fatherly love. It is his medicine, not his punishment; his chastisement, not his sentence; his correction, not his condemnation."
Samuel Bolton (1606-1654)
