So Moses told the people, "You must be careful to obey all the commands of the LORD your God, following his instructions in every detail. Deut. 5:32
This verse has really stuck close the past couple days. This is the memory verse for my Sunday school class this week. It reminds us to be careful...I know I say that exact phrase daily at least ten times to my kids. In looking a little deeper, why do we say that to our children? We say that because we know there is danger and evil in this world and we are wanting our children to stay focused so they don't get hurt. And we do this simply because we love them.
God loves us! So much so that He is reminding us to be careful...obey Him...follow His instructions in every detail. In every detail, other translations say not to turn to the left or the right. Yes, sometimes that seems hard. But let God be your guide today. God knows there is evil and danger out there and wants to be our Protector. He wants to keep us safe.
As for me, I'm gonna be careful to obey the Lord's commands!
