What Makes for Beauty?
Psalm 149:4 NKJV
For the Lord takes pleasure in His people;
He will beautify the humble with salvation.
Psalm 149 calls us to sing a new song to God, to rejoice in God as our Maker, Father, and King, to praise God with dance and with song accompanied by the playing of musical instruments, such as the timbrel (ancient tambourine) and harp.
When we do these things, God is pleased.
And when God is pleased with our humble worship, creatively expressed, what's going to happen next?
To those who worship God, who humble themselves in adoration to God, a gift of beauty is given.
It's called salvation.
What a gift!
God's always doing things like that.
I like that about God.
Don't you?
