He is our Lord, creator, savior and we are only here because of His desire not ours.  His is the only commands that we should keep and follow and if there are any other commands that contradict His, God\u2019s commands should always over rule those.

I not only have to keep God\u2019s command close to my heart, I also need to follow them each day.  I know I can\u2019t do this alone and I will only succeed with the help of the Holy Spirit and I need to make myself open to all He desires me to do.

I love you and you deserve my very best.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture Leviticus 22:31 &#8220;Keep my commands and follow them. I am the LORD.
