Psalm 119:69
The arrogant have smeared me with lies, but I obey your precepts with all my heart.
Smear campaigns. Misunderstood malignings. Character assassinations. Attributed arrogance. Misinterpreted maliciousness. Engineered lies. Awful assumptions. These seem to be very much the subject of human dealings. Any social circle seems to have its share, with varying proportions dependant on the decadence of its people.
What is David’s response? Careless obedience. Focussed faithfulness. Single minded abandonment.
Quite often our energy is fruitlessly dissipated in futilely flying in the face of the accusations and assumptions made against us. How much more productive is careless obedience.
