Look At The King

Contemplate your blessed Redeemer, seated on His great white throne, encircled with heavenly glory!
 
Look at the King in His beauty!
It is the sight of a glorified Savior—that will make the heaven of the believer.
 
Endeavor now, by the eye of faith, to behold the Lord Jesus in all His matchless beauty and excellence.

 
Contemplate . . .  His glorious character;   His infinite mercy;   His unparalleled condescension,  and His boundless love!
 
There is enough in Jesus to employ the soul in rapturous meditation through a vast eternity!
 
His excellence, His goodness, and His love—can never be fathomed!

O keep your eye fixed on this adorable Savior, while you sojourn in this valley of tears; and in a little while you shall see Him as He is; face to face, and ascribe to Him unceasing praise!
