"You shall not murder."

Deuteronomy 5:17

 

The Ten Commandments (6) - Tossing a life line!

 

Each human life is very important to God. He made humans after His own image, spiritually. He is the giver of life and forbids you from taking someone's life from them. Jesus says it a little more clearly with His instructions. He says it is wrong to even think about hurting someone. You must be careful not to hurt others. There are many ways you could hurt someone. Be sure the words you speak do not damage some ones heart!

 

God has told us that we are not to commit murder. All life belongs to God. There is another way God does not want us to kill! He does not want us to destroy or damage some ones character with our words or actions. We should always be careful how we speak to and about others. Never repeat a rumor. Do not tell lies about others. What we say can hurt or kill a person's spirit. They can be destroyed inside in the heart.

 

Blessed Are You!

 

 

"Blessed are those who mourn,

for they will be comforted."

Matthew 5:4

 

""Blessed are you when people insult you,

persecute you and falsely say all kinds of

evil against you because of me."

Matthew 5:11

 

Blessings come to those who are a blessing to others. To have good friends, we have to bee good friends. Helping a hurting heart can bring a 'broken spirit' back to life. God knows our hearts and our reasons for doing what we do. He will put our hearts to the test. He searches for hearts that are unselfish and truly care about Him and others. A damaged heart can be healed with kindness and God's great love!

Someone has made fun of Emmi Squirrel. Emmi is a very sensitive squirrel. She always wants to do good! She wants to be the kind of squirrel God wants her to be. A lie was told and is spreading through the forest. Emmi does not want the other forest creatures to think badly about her. Emmi's heart has been damaged. Cami Cub is a caring friend. She will help Emmi's "broken spirit' to heal.
