Let us meditate',

Back to The Pastor's Evening Visit


Let us meditate—and let Jesus be our subject!

"My meditation of Him shall be sweet!" Psalm 104:34

To meditate is to think closely, seriously, and for some time upon one subject. If the subject is spiritual—the exercise is peculiarly profitable. If the mind is spiritual—meditation on Jesus will be sweet. Let us think of Him . . .
frequently,
intently, and
seriously. 

Let us meditate on . . .
the glory of His person, 
the riches of His grace,
the strength of His love,
the tenderness of His sympathy,
the power of His arm,
the merit of His blood,
the magnificence of His righteousness,
the completeness of His conquest,
the splendour of His ascension,
the prevalence of His intercession,
the exalted station He fills in heaven,
His constant care of His people on earth,
what He gives to them,
what He requires of them, and
the eternal glory which He will soon give them!

Let us meditate—and let Jesus be our subject!
Let us go over in meditation all that regards . . .
His person, 
His office,
His work, 
His kingdom,
His humiliation,
His exaltation, and
His character. 
Such meditations will be sweet!


Let us see Him . . . 
in nature,
in providence,
and in grace. 

Such views of Him will cheer, strengthen, and spiritualize us!
