" Because I said so!" I find myself saying that a lot to my children when they question why they have to do something. Sometimes I don't have an answer to why they have to, or I don't feel like explaining it to them, so I use that as my reason. But, when is the last time you did something simply because " you said so?" Or, because God "said so"?
God says a lot of things in the bible, and does a lot of things, and I don't know why he does or says them. but, I promised to follow Him, and the things that are muddy or unclear, I'm trusting God will make them clear at some point.
When is the last time you followed through with a commitment, even when it got tough, simply said because you said you would?
A wife. a mother. A pastor's wife. Above all, a Christ follower.
