Numbers 4:1-49; Proverbs 1:1-33; Mark 14:1-26
Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the Lord said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!” 1 Samuel 16:12 NKJV
David’s lovely features pleased Samuel. Similarly, Saul loved David after first meeting him, as did Jonathan and Michal. The qualities Saul admired in David were what he wished he had himself: youthful zeal, respect, prudence, and the Lord’s presence. David’s lovely charm captivated the hearts of all who observed
him. Likewise, the One whom David typifies, the Lord Jesus, will completely enthrall every saint with His noble, charming character and the radiance of His presence. —W. A. H.
O Christ, He is the fountain, the deep, sweet well of love!
The streams on earth I’ve tasted more deep I’ll drink above. —Anne Ross Cousin
