Deut. 5:11-21
When believers see clearly the world
God has created and consider its value with thankfulness, they
realize that the world is truly a place to live. Let's look again at
the 10 commandments, with thankfulness.
- Consider God's name as precious (11)
Don't use the name of God to nourish
resentful thoughts.
- Keep the day of the Lord holy (Sabbath)
Work with all your strength during six
days. The Sabbath is a day of rest and peace for the soul.
- Honor your parents (16)
In this way, your children will honor
God and yourselves.
- Consider the life of a man as precious (17)
Don't kill.
- Marriage is holy (18)
Do not commit adultery. Do not think of
flirting as normal. Virgins are only happy if they keep their
virginity.
- Consider the possessions of others as precious (18)
Don't steal. Everything in this world
belongs to God and to us.
- Love the truth (20)
False testimony deprives us of
sincerity.
- Learn (know how) to be content (21)
Do not covet what belongs to others.
When we allow Jesus to live in our
hearts, we can see the world with light. How happy would you be if
you could see the world from this new point of view ?
Prayer : Lord, forgive me if I
have badly used or considered this world that you created.
Bottom line : precious world
