“Follow only God, your God, hold Him in deep reverence, keep His commandments, listen obediently to what He says, serve Him—hold on to Him for dear life” (Deuteronomy 13:4 The MESSAGE Version)!
Greetings,
My precious grandbaby is crawling up a storm, and she enjoys traveling all around the house. This has forced me to keep my floors squeaky clean, but it is worth it. The greatest thing about her new-found freedom is that she follows me where ever I go. If I am in the kitchen, she’s right behind me. If I am folding towels, she’s jiggles and wiggles to the linen closet. If I am making the bed, voilà, there she is. I take her desire to be near me as the highest compliment, and somehow I think she knows, even in her limited baby understanding, that I love her, want what’s best for her, will make sure she has everything she needs, and of course, will drop everything I am doing to tickle her and play peek-a-boo.
God tells us to follow only Him and hold onto Him for dear life because He also loves us, wants what is best for us, will make sure we have everything we need, and will always tune in to our prayers. The Bible says it best: “God is your life - your good life, your abundant life, your fulfillment, and the length of your days” (Deuteronomy 30:20 The Amplified Bible).
Praise Him!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, we follow You today. Help us to revere you and keep Your commandments. Help us to hear what You are saying to us. We hold onto You today because we want the good the life. In Jesus’ name, AMEN.
