Just as the miser returns often to look on his treasure
(Charles Spurgeon, "Treasury of David")
"I will meditate in Your precepts and consider Your ways." Psalm 119:15
He who has an inward delight in anything will not stop thinking about it for very long. Just as the miser returns often to look on his treasure, so the devout believer, by frequent meditation, turns over the priceless wealth that He has discovered in the Book of the Lord.
No spiritual exercise is more profitable to the soul than that of devout meditation!
"His delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night." Psalm 1:2
"Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it." Joshua 1:8
