I came across this poem when I was reading John Piper's book, "A Hunger for God." It spoke to my spirit so profoundly that I immediately printed it out, put it on a plastic backing, laminated it and decorated it with stickers. Now I take it with me wherever I go and meditate on it whenever I have a chance.

His goodness shines with brightest rays
When we delight in all His ways.

His glory overflows its rim
When we are satisfied in Him.

His radiance will fill the earth
When people revel in His worth.

The beauty of God's holy fire
Burns brightest in the heart's desire.


Isn't that beautiful??
