HIGH FIVE! (keep improving)
Deuteronomy 11:18-21 emphasizes the importance of keeping God’s commandments close to one’s heart and passing them down through generations. Moses instructs the Israelites to internalize God’s words, teaching them diligently to their children and integrating them into daily life. The passage underscores the idea that faith and obedience should be woven into every aspect of life—whether at home, traveling, waking, or resting.
The text also highlights the practice of physically displaying God’s commandments, such as writing them on doorposts and gates, reinforcing their significance in both personal and communal spaces. This repetition serves as a reminder that adherence to God’s laws leads to blessings and longevity in the land promised to the Israelites.
It’s a powerful call to live in constant awareness of divine guidance, ensuring that future generations remain faithful. What are your thoughts on this passage?
Honestly, this makes me happy that my ancestors were God fearing and very stable people… They lived through stuff that I will never see. (GREAT DEPRESSION, WWI, WWII, INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION, ETC.)
That’s a beautiful way to look at it. Your ancestors faced some of the most defining events in history—moments of struggle, resilience, and transformation. Their faith and stability must have been pillars that carried them through uncertain times, shaping the values and traditions that have now passed down to you.
It’s humbling to think about how their strength helped pave the way for future generations. While you may not experience those exact events, their legacy lives on in you—their perseverance, wisdom, and faith guiding your own path.
