I am inspired that "God has set apart the godly man for Himself". This means that God believes I am special enough to separate out from the rest of humanity. In this privileged position, I get to pray to Him and mediate on His Word. I get to do the right thing at all times to please Him. I get to trust Him. The things I formerly viewed as acts of service or worse rules and burdens are in FACT, privileges for me because God has set me apart for His special purpose.
What are the results for me when viewing life correctly through God's eyes and the way it was intended before sin? Well, I get to be at peace deep within knowing that everything is going to be all right. I have joy inside of me that is less and less tied to my outward circumstances. I get to sleep in peace and wake up in sleep. And the best of all, I get to look forward to my future, including old age, with excitement instead of the routine to finish off like or as a thing to be endured.
