There lies the sweetness!

"My meditation of Him shall be sweet." Psalm 104:34
"Of Him"-that is, of the Well-Beloved of the Father, of the Well-Beloved of my own soul-of Him who loved me, in whose blood I have washed my robes and made them white.
It is meditation "of Him" that is sweet-not merely of doctrine about Him-but of Him, of Himself. Not merely of His offices, and His work, and all that concerns Him-but of His own dear Self! There lies the sweetness!
The closer we come to His blessed Person-the more truly have we approached the very center of bliss!
"Yes, He is altogether lovely! This is my Beloved, and this is my Friend!" Song of Songs 5:16!
