Selah: "To Pause and Consider"
Thursday, February 2, 2012
Thomas Sherman - "If God is perfect in himself, and capable of imparting the highest good to the creature--then it is the greatest wisdom of the creature to choose him, and his imperative duty to live in observance of his commandments. If all men must appear before this great Majesty, and bow before him--then I admire the wisdom of the godly, and am surprised at the folly of the wicked."
SELAH!
Thomas Sherman lived in the mid 1700s and was the author of "A pious soul thirsting after Christ."
As much as possible, credit will be given to those whose "Selahs" have prompted my own consideration and meditation. Some are originial (probably not many) with me or are completely anonymous. (Disclaimer: I don't say that every "Selah" story is true, it's an illustration that is designed to get you to reflect upon the point of the story.)
