Psalm 33:5a
He loveth righteousness and judgment:…
The
Lord Loves These Two Things
When we love
someone we want to give them things they love.
Maybe your husband loves homemade chocolate chip cookies. My
husband loves jello! I try to make
it to give him what he loves. The Lord
loves righteousness and judgment. When we determine to do things His way and
evaluate things in the light of His standards, the Lord loves this. We aren’t supposed to be primarily motivated
to do the right things in order to have a blessed life for ourselves. It should be our desire to honor and please
Him. If you find yourself struggling
with a sin, seek to overcome it with His help, to give Him something He
loves. When the love of Christ
constrains us, we will find resources and power not easily found in the self-effort
of trying to do the right thing.
