Psalms 119:60  I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands

Obedience is faith put into practice. Without action, our faith is not real, James 2 reminds us. So, without arguing, let's quickly obey, even when we don't fully understand why, because we've seen God's love demonstrated to us in Jesus and we've seen the protection that His will has for us when we obey Him.

PRAYER ... O God, give me a heart that is quick to obey and a faith that is quick to express itself in action. I want to please You with my words and thoughts, but even more, Father, I want to live a life full of Your character, wisdom, and grace. Help me to quickly obey Your voice. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
