Bridges on Delight and Obedience

August 26, 2013 by Brian

Acceptable obedience must however flow from love, and be accompanied with a measure of " delight." And surely at the very time that we are " abhorring ourselves in dust and ashes " before our God, we have every reason to delight in his ways ; and it cannot be entirely right with us, until something of this " delight in God’s commandments " is felt and enjoyed.

Charles  Bridges, Exposition of Psalm CXIX, 123.
