LOVING THE LAW
The 95th Day of Love
Memory Verse— Psalm 119:97. Oh, how I love your law!
The Prayer— Help me to love to do right as well as loving to be right.
The Affirmation— Today I will show my love for God and others through my obedience to what is right.
The Scripture Lesson— Matthew 5:17-20
The Meditation
Perhaps it is correct to say that most good citizens
love the “law” when they think of it objectively!
How different we feel when we are caught up
in disobedience of the law!
To love a law means to obey the law carefully,
gladly, constantly!
Would it be correct to say that the hardest task
we have is not loving God but in loving God’s
laws?
Let us remember that every law of God is a law
of love!
When we are saved, we are not saved from law,
we are saved from the disobedience of law!
There is no basic conflict in law and grace when
you realize that you are dealing ultimately with a person who is Love!
To love God’s law is to love what is eternally
right!
If you love “love”, and you don’t love “law”, then
you can lose your love, be lost to His law, and
lose your life!
