“"For the Lord is pleasant" [Psalm 100:4]. Think not that you faint in praising Him. Your praise of Him is like food: the more ye praise Him, the more ye acquire strength, and He whom you praise becomes the more sweet.”

In context

2and I will be wise in a blameless way. When wilt thou come to me? I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

3I have not set before mine eyes any unlawful thing; I have hated transgressors.

— Psalms 100:4 —

5Him that privily speaks against his neighbor, him have I driven from me: He that is proud in look and insatiable in heart—with him I have not eaten.

6Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: He that walked in a perfect way, the same ministered to me.
