Sweeter than the day before

”Yes, he is altogether lovely.” (Song of Solomon 5:16)

Little by little, bit by bit, each day is sweeter than the day before as we grow closer to Christ. For each mistake we make, each time we fall short, it is a God opportunity to make us stronger and draw us closer.

🎶I love Him more and more; Jesus saves and keeps me, He's the one that I adore; Ev'ryday is sweeter, Sweeter than the day before.🎶

“There are these degrees of attainment among believers, and the Saviour here incites us to reach a high position by mentioning a certain privilege which is not for all who say that they are in Christ, but for those only who are abiders in him. Every believer should be an abider, but many have hardly earned the name as yet. Jesus says, “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” You have to live with Christ to know him, and the longer you live with him the more will you admire and adore him; yes, and the more will you receive from him, even grace for grace. Truly he is a blessed Christ to one who is but a month old in grace; but these babes can hardly tell what a precious Jesus he is to those whose acquaintance with him covers well-nigh half a century! Jesus, in the esteem of abiding believers, grows sweeter and dearer, fairer and more lovely, day by day. Not that he improves in himself, for he is perfect; but that as we increase in our knowledge of him, we appreciate more thoroughly his matchless excellences…, ‘Yes, he is altogether lovely’”!
