“I Delight To Do Thy Will, O My God”
Man’s capacity for pleasure finds its full satisfaction when his life is surrendered to the will of God…. Infinite meaning lies within the words of Christ, ‘I delight to do thy will, O my God.’
Relationships and Choices
Having the ability to choose is what gives the word obey meaning and depth. Choice makes a relationship genuine.
I Can Do All Things Through Christ
The fact that God has commanded us to do a thing proves that we can do it.
The Work of Christ
It is the work of Christ to bring us back to God, and to restore us to perfection of holiness and obedience; and He is the way to the Father, so faith in Him is the way to our former employment and enjoyment of God.
Christ Is Lord of All
There is no sphere, however secular, in which Christ has no rights — and no sphere in which His servants are absolved from obedience to Him.
B. M. Metzger in J. Oswald Sanders, The Incomparable Christ, p. 228
