Albert Barnes Commentary Psalms 119:60

"I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments." — Psalms 119:60 (ASV)

I made haste - This language further describes the process of conversion. There was no delay; there was no excuse offered. He acted at once under his conviction of what was right.

He did not ask permission to defer it to a future time; he did not attempt to avoid the duty; he did not plead inability; he did not give himself merely to the "use of means"; he did not rely on prayer, reading, and reflection; but he did the thing, and he did it at once.

This is conversion. If all convicted sinners would follow this example, and do at once what they are commanded to do and what they know they ought to do, there would in no case be any difficulty about conversion.

For the main difficulty in conversion lies in the fact that the sinner is not willing to obey God at once: he will not break away from his sins, he endeavors to excuse himself, he pleads for delay, and he waits for God to do what he himself ought to do.

And delayed not to keep thy commandments - I did not continue to go on in a course of sin, but I forsook my sin and obeyed.
