Beautiful Savior

In the Word

“The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me: ‘When one rules over men in righteousness, when he rules in the fear of God, he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings the grass from the earth’” (2 Samuel 23:3–4).

Of the Word

Beautiful Savior, King of creation,
Son of God and Son of Man!
Truly I’d love Thee, Truly I’d serve Thee,
Light of my soul, my joy, my crown.

A quote we often hear is, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” Jesus came in ordinary looking human form. He lived a perfect life, suffered humiliation, and died on the cross to pay the price for our sins. He rose again from the dead and because He lives, we will live with Him in heaven when we die. Our Savior is truly beautiful through the eyes of faith!

Imagine the heavenly day when the saints join together to sing praise to the beautiful Savior, the Lord of the nations! “Glory and honor, Praise, adoration Now and forevermore be Thine!”

Walking with my Lord

Beautiful Savior, our King and Lord, You are worthy of our praise because of Your  gift of salvation. Give me a thankful heart so I may dwell in Your beauty, not only in the glories of heaven, but also today! In Your saving name I pray. Amen.
