I found this in The Letters of Samuel Rutherford this afternoon. It's a pretty long quote, but I liked it.

"Twenty times a-day I ravel (twist the threads disorderly) heaven, and then I must come with my ill-raveled work to Christ, to cumber him (as it were) to right it; and to seek again the right end of the thread, and to fold up again my eternal glory with his own hand, and to give a right cast of his holy and gracious hand to my marred and spoiled salvation. Certainly, it is a cumbersome thing to keep a foolish child from falls and broken brows, and weeping for this and that toy, and rash running and sickness, and bairn's diseases; ere he get through them all, he costeth no little care and fashery (trouble about a multitude of things) his keepers. And so is a believer a cumbersome piece of work, and an ill-ravelled hesp (hank of yarn) (as we say) to Christ. But God be thanked; for many spoiled salivations, and many ill-ravelled hesps hath Christ mended, since first he entered tutor to lost mankind. O what could we bairns do without him! how soon should we mar all! But the less out weight be upon our own feeble legs, and the more on Christ, the strong Rock, the better for us. It is good for us that ever Christ took the cumber of us; it is our heaven to lay many weights and burdens upon Christ, and to make him all we have, root and top, beginning and end of our salvation. Lord, hold us there."
