Over and over again the psalmist states that he obeys Gods law or he expresses a strong desire to follow it. Following God’s words should not be conditional. Regardless of how those around us act, we are to uphold the word of God and strive to follow it.

Thats a lot of verses on doing what God said. It must be important!
