Our identity as the people of God is marked primarily by our faithfulness in obedience to Him.

In Deuteronomy 11, God offers Israel a choice; either a life of productivity and enjoyment made possible by obedience to Him, or a life of difficulty and opposition made necessary by disobedience. The happiness Israel desires can only be theirs by being properly related to Him.

What we do in public determines our reputation; what we do in private determines our character.

A good memory is one of the most precious assets of spiritual living.

Recalling what our lives were like before Jesus Christ entered them will help keep our daily problems in perspective.

The generous giver, demonstrating the nature of God by his behavior, can never outgive God.

God demonstrates generosity, then asks it from His people.
