Daily Sacrifice, March 22 (34:5)
“They looked unto Him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed”— Psalms 34:5.
IT is not merely that divine light penetrates the soul when we gaze by faith upon the face of the God of all grace as revealed in our Lord Jesus Christ, but the wonderful thing is that we reflect the glory that shines from His countenance in our own lives. The words rendered “were lightened” might well be translated “became radiant.” Just as Moses looked upon the face of God and his own face became radiant, so the believer who is occupied with Christ will show by a radiant life that he has been with Jesus and learned of Him. This was true of the disciples of old when people took knowledge of them that they had been in the company of God’s blessed Son.
