There's a lot about the "Law" in the psalms, and I've sometimes wondered what to do with that now that we are under grace. One thing I like to do is think about Christ as the fulfillment of the Law. For example, from this morning's reading, Psalm 19:7-10 is a meditation on the excellence of God's perfect law.
Like God's Law, Jesus Christ, the fulfillment of the Law, is perfect, sure, right, pure, clean, true, more desirable than gold, and sweeter than honey. And, like the Law but even more so, Jesus revives my soul, makes me wise, rejoices my heart, enlightens my eyes, endures forever, and is righteous altogether.
