Psalms 119:2. Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
For he that has most of God, yet needs to seek more. We keep the testimonies - those we know, for we are taught of the Lord according to the promise, "All thy children shall be taught of the Lord." Yet do we still seek more. With our whole heart are we pressing on still to something higher and better. Even the undefiled in the way are so, comparatively: they are not absolutely undefiled, so as to be absolutely perfect in the sight of God. Hence they feel their imperfection, and they press after something better. They seek him with the whole heart.
