DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 23:10-33; Psalms 66-67; Acts 13:1-25
Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. Isaiah 6:5
What made Isaiah so small? His eyes had seen the King! What a lesson for us. The more we see of the beauty and majesty of the King, the smaller we will become. Isaiah was a good prophet, and humanly speaking could have thought very highly of himself, but this was not so. Here is true meekness. He saw himself in the true light of the King, the Lord of Hosts. Do we measure ourselves by others or by the King? “In me (that is, my flesh) dwelleth no good thing” (Rom. 7:18). —Harold G. Smith
Once our blessed Christ of beauty, was veiled off from human view;
But thro’ suffering death and sorrow, He has rent the veil in two. —Herrell
