DELIGHTFUL.

It is not a hard task to obey God if we will only let Him write His law in the heart. If we look at His commandments through carnal eyes, they are arbitrary, and the heart rises in rebellion against them; because "the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be." To such God's commands will always seem an intolerable yoke. But to him who sees in them the wishes of a loving Father for His children's good, all His requirements become a delight, blessed promises of assurance, enabling acts of power. How do you receive His law? Is it as a rebel, or a loyal subject? It makes all the difference in the world in the results.
