Delighting in the Works of the Lord

The works of the Lord are great, studied by all who have pleasure in them (Psalm 111:2). There’s a quote that says, “the more one gazes, the more one sees.”

The more we delight in and ponder the wonderful, saving acts of Christ, the more we recognize the beauty of His grace and compassion. And the more we recognize His grace and compassion, the more inclined we are to accept the psalmist’s initial invitation to “Praise the Lord” as we celebrate Holy Communion.
