Isaiah 62:1-5

1/17/2016

0 Comments

 
Thoughts:         Compliments are precious.  We remember them; we say them over to ourselves in the darkness; we savour them.
 
One of the most famous literary compliments is Antony’s for Cleopatra:  “She makes hungry where most she satisfies.”
 
Isaiah writes a beautiful compliment for Jerusalem:  (You are) “a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.”
                             
Discussion:      A diadem has many precious stones.  Suppose each one represents a virtue.  Which virtue would you like most to represent?
 
Activity:            Pay a sincere compliment to a church friend this week.
