Faith is an Active Choice
Commentators emphasize that faith is not passive but a deliberate decision. The psalmist "chose" the way of truth from among all other possible paths. John Calvin notes this choice is a firm resolution made amidst life's many temptations and conflicting voices. This act of choosing is the foundation of a life dedicated to God.
