[Songs in the Night - September 24]
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise Thee with joyful lips: when I remember Thee upon my bed, and meditate on Thee in the night watches. Psalm 63:5, 6
WHOEVER has time for meditation will receive a
great blessing if his thoughts shall turn toward the
Almighty, acknowledging his goodness, seeking to give
praise to God for all his manifold mercies, meditating
upon God in the night watches....We should think
of God as the personification of all that is just, loving,
kind, wise, in character and principle.
This should
stimulate us to be like him.
The more we appreciate
a noble character the more we desire to emulate it.
The more we see of God's mighty works in nature and
his mercies toward us, in that same proportion our
hearts and lips shall praise him. Z'15-312 R5785:5 (Hymn Appendix A)
