We’ve all heard of the ten commandments that God gave to the people of Israel through Moses. What’s interesting about the ten commandments is that most of them are common sense. You shouldn’t lie or kill or covet. They talk about having good relationships with the people around you. The rest of the commandments talk about having a good relationship with God. God’s rules aren’t just rules for the sake of rules, they are rules to help develop our relationships with each other and with Him. Spend some time talking to God today asking Him to help you view His law through the eyes of a relationship with Him.]]>
