23. Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me. Praise
is the best sacrifice; true, hearty, gracious thanksgiving from a renewed mind.
And to him that ordereth his conversation a right will I show the salvation of God. Holy living is a choice evidence of salvation. He who submits his
whole way to divine guidance, and is careful to honor God in his life, brings
an offering which the Lord accepts through his dear Son; and such a one shall
be more and more instructed, and made experimentally to know the Lord’s salvation.
He needs salvation, for the best ordering of the life cannot save us but that salvation
he shall have. Not to ceremonies, not to unpurified lips, is the blessing
promised, but to grateful hearts and holy lives.
