I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, and on Your wondrous works. Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts, and I will declare Your greatness. They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness and shall sing of Your righteousness. -Psalm 145:5-7
Your last thought at night, your first thought in the morning, should be of Him in whom is centered your hope of eternal life. {OFC 113.2}
Many seem to begrudge moments spent in meditation, and the searching of the Scriptures, and prayer, as though the time thus occupied was lost. I wish you could all view these things in the light God would have you; for you would then make the kingdom of heaven of the first importance…. As exercise increases the appetite, and gives strength and healthy vigor to the body, so will devotional exercises bring an increase of grace and spiritual vigor. {OFC 113.3}
The affections should center upon God. Contemplate His greatness, His mercy and excellences. Let His goodness and love and perfection of character captivate your heart. Converse upon His divine charms, and the heavenly mansions He is preparing for the faithful. He whose conversation is in heaven, is the most profitable Christian to all around him. His words are useful and refreshing. They have a transforming power upon those who hear them. {OFC 113.4}
Heart Question: Are you mediating and centering your thoughts morning, noon, evening and night on the God? Do you contemplate on His goodness, His greatness, His mercies, and His Love? Do you allow the perfection of God’s character to captivate your heart? Let your conversations be heavenly and profitable to all you come in contact.
