—1 John 5:1-3

Have you ever asked your parents why you have to do something only to have them answer, “Because I said so?” We do not always have to understand the reasoning behind our parents’ instructions. We should obey them out of love and respect. The same goes for our relationship with God. Because He is all-knowing and we are not, we do not always understand His commands for our lives. However, we should follow and obey Him out of our love and respect for Him. His commands are good and He put them in place to keep us safe. We should strive to abide by His Word in all we do.
