DAILY READINGS: 1 Kings 15:33-16:34; Jeremiah 27-28; Col. 4:2-18
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Psalm 45:2
The Lord Jesus is more beautiful then all the children of men and the Psalmist finds it hard to describe Him. This phrase “Thou art fairer than the children of men”can be translated, “Beautiful, beautiful, perfectly beautiful Thou art.” Abraham was called the “friend of God” and David was called the “man after God’s own heart” but the Lord Jesus Christ far exceeds them all. Truly He is fairer than the children of men. Do you find Him so? —Paul Robertson
Fairest of all the earth beside,
Chiefest of all unto thy Bride,
Fullness divine in Thee, I see,
Beautiful Man of Calvary! —Manie P. Ferguson
