One of the things I love to hear is people say, “That’s right.”
Why do I love it?
When things are not right, when there is that little bit that kinda spoils it. When there is that element that just makes the something off-putting, it is not a pleasant experience.
To dwell on that which is right is often an exercise in enjoying that which is worthy of applause, satisfaction and admiration. Even if that which is right leaves you in an awkward position (because you are in the wrong) there can still be an acceptance that at least the right way has been established.
Many think they know what is right, only to be shown how wrong they were, but far better to experience that and have a turnaround than to keep on going in a direction that will end in misery.
One of the reasons I love following Jesus is because He not only shows what right is, He lives it out Himself. His way of living it continues to fascinate and challenge exactly because it turns a lot of the norm that were accepted as right on its head and says that there is a way to know the right and rejoice in it for the change it makes to those formerly in the wrong.
To consider His way of life is to consider what’s right and think on those things helps us not to be left with what is wrong, but be able to join in the chorus of saints throughout the ages who look at the wonders of God in Christ Jesus and say,
“That’s right.”
For His Name’s Sake
Shalom
