"For I, the LORD, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishment for their ancestors' wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation; but showing love down to the thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments. You shall not invoke the name of the LORD, your God, in vain. For the LORD will not leave unpunished anyone who invokes his name in vain." Exodus 20:5b-7
Has God changed? No, still the same God and still the same Ten Commandments. What has changed? You are still at the foot of the mountain, these are God's words. We choose which voice to listen too but God is still God. He tells us what happens when we listen to him and when we don't. "Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid, for God has come only to test you and put the fear of him upon you so you do not sin."" Exodus 20:20 The Ten Commandments are still the Ten Commandments, as hard as the world tries to change them they are just as effective today as they were at the foot of the mountain. A healthy fear of God brings all things into perspective for it is His voice who drowns out the lies and not the other way around.
What is God saying to me? Listen to Me, I love you beyond measure.
Dear Father, there is peace in knowing You are constant and You are real. For the times I strayed I am sorry but the pain was too great to stay away. I know You love me and accept me with open arms. You are written on my heart and You gave that grace, may the Love of Christ be written on many more hearts. Thank You for the beautiful soul speaking yesterday she is a Godly woman living her faith in an authentic way, many can learn from her. Prayers for a friend dealing with grieve, may they know they are loved by You and those around them. Bless this day as we go into it together. Amen.
Mary, Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
