With You is the fountain of life

With You is the fountain of life

"With You is the fountain of life—in Your light shall we see light." Psalm 36:9

Our highest wisdom is to apply directly to the Source of spiritual good for supplies. Indeed, it is utterly vain to expect life and light from any but the Lord Himself.

He is the Fountain of life . He gave us our natural life—and He is the giver of spiritual and eternal life, which He bestows in and with Christ. "This is the record, that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son." All who by faith receive Christ as their Savior—are delivered from eternal death, and are made partakers of everlasting life.

And as God is the Fountain of life—so He is the Source of light . He created natural light. He said, "Let there be light—and there was light." He who commanded the light to shine out of darkness—shines into the hearts of His people. He delivers them from darkness, and brings them into His marvelous light.
They then see sin in a light in which they never saw it before—they see something of its exceeding sinfulness.
They see Christ in a light in which they did not see Him before—they see something . . .
  of His personal glory,
  of His wondrous grace,
  of His unspeakable love!

O You who are the Fountain of life—in Your light may I see light!
