Sweet.

God is the quintessence of delight, all beauty, and love. Holy meditation draws out His sweetness like a bee drinking nectar from a flower.  Nothing is sweet without Him: He perfumes and sanctifies our comforts. 

[Thomas Watson]


Proverbs 16:24 ... Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

Song of Solomon 5:13 ... His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.
