 This Bible verse made absolutely no sense to me until I realized this crucial truth. Here's the verse, Psalm 1 verse 2. It says, But his delight is in the law of the Lord and on the law he meditates day and night. Growing up, my parents didn't let me jump on trampolines, call it sheltered or whatever, but it's true. So whenever I was at my friend's house and they had a trampoline, it felt very burdensome to hold to my parents' rule. At that point, I took no delight in what they told me to do. A couple weeks later, I found out that my friend had broken his alarm on the trampoline. In that moment, I was happy that my parents gave me that rule. I realized that they were only acting out of love. Now you can take issue with my parents' rule, but when it comes to God, his laws are perfect. I used to be so confused at how people could delight in God's rules, but then I realized that they're an outflowing of God's love towards us. The truth is that none of us can keep God's law perfectly, but through Jesus taking the punishment of our lawlessness on himself, we can be made right with God. God has given us his power and his presence in our lives so that we can live out his commands, because they are for our good and his glory.
