Little yellow bees, flowers, pollen, hives, queens and workers…have you ever thought about the marvelous process of honey-making?
We serve a Creator-Designer who hardwired complexity and beauty into everything.
Honey is no ordinary substance. It’s sweeter than sugar and contains trace vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It’s used in some beauty products because it's a natural humectant that’s good for skin. Studies show it’s also effective in treating some cold and sore throat symptoms.
Natural, healing, nutritious, sweet, pleasant…what a great picture of God’s Word:
The decrees of the LORD are firm,
and all of them are righteous.
They are more precious than gold,
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the honeycomb.
Those who are hungry for truth understand the sweetness of God's Word and lest we miss this truth in Psalm 19, we find it 100 chapters later with more praise for the way it guides and protects us:
How sweet are your words to my taste,
sweeter than honey to my mouth!
I gain understanding from your precepts;
therefore I hate every wrong path.
Let's take time today to marvel at our Creator and taste the sweetness of His Word.
