10/01 Psalm 119:156-158
LORD, how great is your mercy; in your justice, give me back my life. 157 Many persecute and trouble me, yet I have not swerved from your decrees. 158 I hate these traitors because they care nothing for your word.
DEVOTION
Jesus saves us and provides for our cleansing. His call to us is to love one another. The Psalmist is being direct and expressing what is in his heart. The Lord calls us to be direct: tell Him what you want but Jesus calls us to love one another. We give Him our anger. Our righteousness isn’t like God’s therefore Jesus is our righteousness.
