DOING GOOD THINGS
Proverbs 16:3
The beginning of a good way is to do righteous things,
And this is more acceptable to God than to offer sacrifices.
Encouraging Words
The author of Proverbs reminds us that the journey toward living a godly and righteous life begins by doing righteous, or good, things. He is not saying that our righteousness comes from the things that we do, God is the source of our righteousness through Christ. But when God has begun His saving work within us, we humbly follow in the footsteps of our Lord and start doing good things that glorify Him and begin the process of building righteousness in our lives. This is much more acceptable to God than sacrifices. Glory be to God!
