There’s a promise in the rainbow and there’s a promise in the scriptures. 

Deuteronomy 30:15-20
30:15 See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity.

30:16 If you obey the commandments of the LORD your God that I am commanding you today, by loving the LORD your God, walking in his ways, and observing his commandments, decrees, and ordinances, then you shall live and become numerous, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess.

Wow!!!  What wonderful promises from God.  Such a positive message to the people of Israel, us too, that tells us if we love God and remember how he wants us to live in this world we will prosper.

Remember to love God, remember Jesus Christ’s teachings and remember to love your neighbor.  That’s about as simple as it gets.  Do those things well and the rest falls into place.  There will be no better place to live when we learn to put God, His commandments and His Son Jesus Christ first in our lives.

Have a greatest commandment day,  Love God with all your heart, mind and strength, then love your neighbor as yourself,  

Peace and blessings, Randy
