I meditate on it all day long." Psalm 119:97 We are to meditate upon blessed truths that we read in Scripture, such as . . . the holiness, greatness, and graciousness of God; the person, natures, offices, excellencies, beauties, glories, riches, fullness, and sweetness of Christ; our own emptiness, nothingness, baseness, vileness and unworthiness; the works of God--creation, providence and redemption; our spiritual needs; that eternal rest which is reserved for the people of God. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/thomas-brooks/i-meditate-on-it-all-day-long/ ========================================================================
