Hard-Heartedness
Jesus said, "Moses wrote that command for you because you
refused to accept God's teaching."
-- Mark 10:5 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
What Moses did in allowing the children of Israel a legal means of
divorce (see verses 1-4 or yesterday's WJD!) was done only as a
concession. It was not God's original plan. It was not what was best
for the people involved. It was allowed only because of the hard hearts
of the people who wouldn't honor their vows to each other and to God.
In a world where people continue to break their vows, refuse to be
faithful to each other, and wound their children, the focus shouldn't
become the legality of the concession, but should become a focus on
prevention of divorce through healthy and loving marriages and
restoration of those broken by divorce.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
God, I ask first that you help me be a faithful, loyal, and loving
person who lives up the vows, promises, and pledges that I make.
Second, dear Father, I pray that you use me to encourage others to do
the same. Finally, Righteous Father, I ask that you show me the best
ways to help restore and encourage those who have been wounded by
divorce. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
