BLACK DISOBEDIENCE

Psalms 78:29-40

Disobedience is never commonly dubbed as bad and as black as it really is. Under any veneering, cultured or coarse, it is devilish. The core of the devil’s spirit is to set one’s own preference up against God’s. When one re­members that God is more tender than a mother, more eagerly devoted than a lover, and more sensitive to pain and slight than any human, the black badness of disobedience begins to stand out in all its ugliness.
