Loving His Commands
August 27th, 2017
Psalm 112:1-10
In Psalm 112 those blessed of God are the ones who fear Him and who delight in His ways. The fear of God does not drive them away from His presence but results in a loving obedience to the ways of God. God’s blessing is upon those who fear Him because they find pleasure in doing what is right according to His will.
When we love the ways of God our lives begin to reflect His compassion and justice. Unlike those who exploit the poor and profit from those in need, the Christian response is marked with compassion and generosity. We are to generously use the resources God has given us to help lift the burden of those in need of our care. We have been blessed to be a blessing.
When we prayerfully consider our lives, where are the opportunities to be generous with the resources God has given us? Is God laying someone upon our heart, or is He bringing a situation to mind that requires our attention? May we continue to use what He has blessed us with to be a generous to others.
