DAILY?READINGS: Exodus 28:15-43; Psalms 74-75; Acts 16:16-40
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever. Psalm 45:2
In this lovely Messianic psalm, the Psalmist is totally occupied with Christ. He outlines the indescribable excellencies of His person and the sweetness of His words. Even the officers could say, “No man ever spoke like this Man!” (John 7:46). As Jesus closed the book of Isaiah and took His seat in the synagogue, “They marvelled at the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth” (Luke 4:22). Yet the sweetest words, that He ever spoke, were heard at Calvary, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:34). —Jim Comte
The more I see His beauty, the more I know His grace;
The more I long, unhindered, to gaze upon His face.
