The impossible path of blessings

Moses gave a farewell speech to the people of God and it that speech he offered them two choices of how to live their lives. The way of blessings or the way of curses. We commonly think of struggles as things imposed on us from some outside influence. Most of us do not see struggles in life as the product of our living as Moses did. Jesus expanded the code for living that Moses gave to the people. According to Jesus, harboring anger is as much a path of curses as is murder. Are anger and insults really of the same gravity as murder or false accusation or adultery? Is there any hope that any of us will be able to follow the way of blessings?

There's another element that we need to be whole people, blessed by God. This Sunday we'll figure out what that element is.

Please keep the people of Syria and Turkey in your prayers.

See you Sunday!
