Peter 3:12,
“For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his
ears are attentive to their prayer,”
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.”
Righteousness is being a person with
moral character and justifiable. In other words righteousness is
“right-living.” A friend of mine once told this story of her
teenage son coming home and asking if she still loved his dad after
24 years of marriage?
She answered, “Most of the time.”
The teenager was startled and asked,
“if you only love dad most of the time, why are you still
married,.” She looked at him and said, “I am married to your
dad because I said I would be.”
This is right-living...to live a life
that is justified by Jesus and then to make the right choices that
honor that justification. Yes, the truth sets us free, but it does
not grant us the freedom to be anything but righteous.
Are you living a righteous life?When
you are hungering for more from your walk with God then it is time to
examine if you are living right before God and your fellow man?
