Psalm 119:55 – “I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord, and I obey your Law because of this.”
David is talking about how he obeys God because he understands who he is. In other words, when we truly understand how loving, good and all-knowing God is, we have no reason at all to disobey him. I guess all of our disobedience, then, is rooted in a misunderstanding of God’s character.
I think at the moment I’m learning to re-trust God is certain areas of my life. God nailed me about it last night; this morning, it really hit home to me that there are areas that I don’t trust God in.
Help me to know you better, God.
Update: Just realised that 1 John 3:2 - "...he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is. Adds further proof to my hyposthesis that our sin is rooted in mistrust of God.
