DAILY READINGS: 2 Kings 6:1-23; Jeremiah 39-40; Hebrews 10:1-18
If thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord…all these blessings shall come on thee. But…if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord…all these curses shall come upon thee Deuteronomy 28:1-2, 15
On a recent school trip, two boys went missing because they failed to obey their teachers instruction as to where and when to meet the bus. After some anxious moments they were found, but how different the outcome could have been. God gave Israel the choice, obey and be blessed, or disobey and suffer the consequences. The Bible reveals that they chose their own path and suffered for it. Jesus said, if you love me keep my commandments (John 14:15). —C. Tempest
Have thine own way Lord, have thine own way
Thou art the potter, I am the clay. —Adelaide A. Pollard
