"Keep the Lord's commands and statutes I am giving you today, for your own good."
Deuteronomy 10:13
What a wonderful sentence to quote. A lot of people (myself included) just don't like to be told what to do, and we reject authority sometimes just because we want to make our own decisions. But the wonderful thing about the Ten Commandments is that following them is good for you! Whether the Lord blesses you for it or not, they are a strong backbone of a healthy lifestyle.
Question of the Day:
How would your life be different if you had never coveted anything that didn't belong to you? How would your financial state be different? How would your relationships with others be different? What about the first nine commandments? Think about ways that following them all would change your personal life, your interactions with others, and your relationship with the Lord.
Prayer of the Day:
Drop these stone tablets into my soul, where they will be ever with me. Write these Laws on my heart, where they may guide my every action. Amen.
