P. 38
heavens are above the earth. How much higher? Ten times higher? One
hundred times higher? May God help you to enter into this. He could
not find anything more precious than life, so He contrasted love with life.
He could not find anything sweeter than honey, so He contrasts His
Word with honey. He could not find anything higher than the heavens.
He could not find anything farther then the east is from the west. He
could not find anything whiter than snow. And that is just a half dozen
illustrations. Psalms has hundreds of them. Do not miss the glory of
Psalms.
Do not just read this as whiter than snow, sweeter than honey, higher
than the heavens, greater than the east and the west. God inspired those
things so you might know His love, His forgiveness, His grace, His
mercy, His loving kindness. Psalms is written that you might know
Him. If God begins to dawn on your heart some of these figures of
speech, your spirit will explode. You will praise God. That is what
Psalms is about. Teaching us how to praise, how to worship, and when
these things begin to grip our heart, oh, we will sing.
We will sing praises unto Him!
