Obedience

Obedience
He gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep His commands. . .  Prov. 8:20

“Not ONE more step!  Do you hear me?”

How many times have we heard these words from a frustrated parent and then watched the child do the exact opposite of the command?  Obedience is what is desired, yet not always witnessed.

But isn’t it refreshing to know that God’s commands to nature could not be disobeyed?  There is no getting around the fact that nature was and is in subjection to our great Creator God!

“I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise,

That spread the flowing seas abroad, and built the lofty skies.

I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day;

The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey.”

– Isaac Watts
