INTRODUCTION
If I ask you “What are the attributes of God?” I think that most of us would rattle off with these answers: “OMNIPOTENT”, “OMNISCIENT”, and “OMNIPRESENT”. Those would be the standard answers.
One attribute of God that is often missed is this: “God is BEAUTIFUL!”. This is a very important attribute because BEAUTY ATTRACTS! If we see that God is beautiful, we will be ATTRACTED to Him.
Unfortunately, only a REMNANT see and APPRECIATE His beauty.
This was something that the Psalmist saw and it RADICALLY CHANGED his life.
