May 9 Psalms 2, 22, 27 Beauty of the LORD

In Psalm 27, the psalmist longs to "gaze upon the beauty of the LORD." Tim Keller, one of my favorite speakers and writers, often speaks about the beauty of God. Do we consider the beauty of God?

What or who do we consider beautiful - a lake surrounded by rugged snow capped mountains or a beautiful ocean sunset or the woman of our dreams (for me, my wife Karen) or a painting by Rembrandt? We are captured by those things or people. We could just sit there and stare. We are taken into an emotional bath.

When we consider God the father, Jesus  the Holy Spirit or the Trinity, we should also be transported to another dimension. We should be able to just rest in our meditation of them.

Today, consider the beauty of our Godhead.
