Deuteronomy 8:18-20
You shall remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your fathers, as it is this day. And if you forget the LORD your God and go after other gods and serve them and worship them, I solemnly warn you today that you shall surely perish. Like the nations that the LORD makes to perish before you, so shall you perish, because you would not obey the voice of the LORD your God.
trust brings wholeness
from wholeness.
all else earns destruction.
all too easy:
turn...slip...fall.
the goads of hesed* hurt.
the goads of hesed help.
hesed is where we stand.
hesed is where we cry in desperation.
Proverbs 12:1
Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but he who hates reproof is stupid.
*Hebrew term often translated "steadfast love"
