The Lord Our God Is One

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. — Deuteronomy 6:4

Kirk is teaching a class on the Ten Commandments.

And I'm in a Bible study reading through Exodus.

This verse reminds me of God's commands.

He gives us the law to point out our sinfulness.

And He sent His Son Jesus to save us from our sins.

To dig us out of the hole we've dug ourselves into.

As our pastor said on Sunday, no self-help book is able to get us out — it's just too deep.

And we are mired in our own filth.

But God has prepared a way to help us out and to give us a path to live with Him forever.

We are thankful that He cares for us so deeply.

I am grateful.

Praise the Lord!
