Morning

Him hath God exalted.

-Acts v. 31

Jesus, our Lord, once crucified, dead and buried, now sits upon the throne of glory... He is exalted at the Father's right hand, and though as Jehovah he has eminent glories, in which finite creatures cannot share, yet as the Mediator, the honours which Jesus wears in heaven are the heritage of all the saints. It is delightful to reflect how close is Christ's union with His people... He cannot be glorified without His bride.

Look up, believer, to Jesus now; let the eye of your faith behold Him with many crowns upon His head; and remember that you will one day be like Him, when you shall see Him as He is; you shall not be so great as He is, you shall not be so divine, but you still shall, in a measure, share the same honours, and enjoy the same happiness and the same dignity which He posses... Oh! wonderful thought for the children of God!

-C.H. Spurgeon
