May 26-27 - Psalm 11:7

 

Who shall behold God’s face? The upright. The righteous.

 

Righteousness is literally right behavior. It is integrity. It is fidelity to God’s ways.

 

And … it’s more than that.

 

Righteousness also requires faith. Without faith, morality is just being honorable. Nice. But righteousness is a thoroughly spiritual posture. As Scripture says, “the righteous shall live by faith” (Rom 1:17).

 

When our hearts and our lives seek after God, that’s when we truly see God’s face.
