Religious Basis for Caregiving. FINALLY something all 3 Religions agree on! Sunday Musings

Contact Helping.Mom (we don’t spam) The Old Testament is obligatory, true and divine to 60% of world's population, to all followers of 3 great religions: to Christians, Muslims & Jews. Let us draw strength from the OT passages below, in rendering care today to our loved one.  Religious Basis for Caregiving  Revelation  Deut 29:29 SECRET things belong to the LORD the things which are REVEALED belong to us and to our children WHY? that we may DO all words of law. Response  Deut 26:17-19 IF you will COMMIT to God,  to WALK in his ways, to KEEP his statutes, and to HEARKEN unto his voice THEN: the LORD commits you to be his PECULIAR people,  to make you HIGH above all nations in PRAISE and NAME and HONOR You may be HOLY people unto the LORD Record  Deut 30:19-20 I CALL heaven and earth to RECORD this day against you,  I set before you LIFE and DEATH, BLESSING CURSING:  therefore CHOOSE LIFE, that both you and thy SEED may live:  That you will LOVE the LORD,  OBEY his voice, and  CLEAVE unto him:  for he is THY LIFE, and LENGTH of DAYS Relationship  Deut 32:6-7  Is not he thy FATHER that hath BOUGHT thee? hath he not MADE thee, and ESTABLISHED thee? Deut 32:8-12  He divides inheritance  He separates sons of Adam, He sets bounds of the people LORD’S portion is his people;  He finds us in waste howling wilderness;  he leads us He instructs us  He keeps is as apple of his eye. As eagle bears is under his wings:  the LORD alone leads He makes us ride on high places of earth Reward Deut 30:6-9 IF … God will make us plenteous in every work of our hand, the fruit of thy body, the fruit of thy cattle, the fruit of thy land the LORD will rejoice over thee for good Deut 32:39-40 I, even I, am he there is no god with me I kill, and I make alive I wound, and I heal I live for ever. Summary: God desires to Reveal Himself to us, and to our children. We Respond with demonstrated acts of responsibility in this world. All the world, and those in heaven, Record our daily choices toward life & blessing, or death & cursing. Through Relationship with God, we demonstrate care to those we love. This the Bible calls "charity," the root word being "charis," or "grace." We show grace. Charity is love demonstrated + shown, not a phantom feeling talked about or wished for in pop songs. For charity shown in right attitude, we receive Reward from God--He makes plenteous our work, and reputation. We are the people of God, in strong character.
