Psalm 119: 73, 74
You made me, You created me. Now give me the sense to follow Your commands.
May all who fear You find in me a cause for joy, for I have put my hope in Your Word.
King David considered that following everything God commanded in all His rules and regulations was only "good sense," since He is the designer of this World and how it works.
I've heard the saying,"What you don't know can't hurt you," but this is a lie. If I don't realize that the "sugar" I put in my coffee is rat poison, my lack of knowledge won't protect me from harm. I need to pay attention to the labels on what I sweeten my beverage with, the same way I need to pay attention to what my Maker says about how I am to live my life according to His ways.
Then when I follow the path He has set before me in my thinking patterns, my attitudes and what I spend my time doing, then others in my life may find cause to rejoice in the good that results for all of us.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
