My dear children, you will have happiness and success if:
  • If you seek me daily (Deuteronomy 4:29)
  • If you turn to me when things get easy, and when things get hard. (4:30)
  • If you keep my commandments (6:25; 7:12; 11:13; 11:22; 15:5; 28:1, 9, 13, 15, 58)
  • If you remember how I led in the past when you come upon insurmountable obstacles. (7:17)
  • If you forget me and turn and walk in the way of the world and then turn back. (4:30, 8:19; 11:28; 30:17)
  • If you stay close to my Word, and thus recognize false doctrine and prophets. (13:1; 18:21, 22)
  • If you refuse to be turned aside from me by friends or family. (13:6)
  • If you stay far from the occult or anything to do with the devil. (13:6, 12, 14)
  • If you do not choose close companions of those who serve other gods. (17:2)
  • If you become entangled in controversy, and either walk away or refer the issue to the proper authorities. (17:8)
  • If you remember your tithes and offerings and don't forget the needy among you. (15:7; 18:6)
  • If you are always true and honest in your dealings with others. (19:18)
  • If you have nothing to do with, or enter into agreements with, those who will, either by requiring or influencing, turn away from me. (20:11)
  • If you turn to me with prayer every time you see sin happening around you. (21:1)
  • If you do not marry until you know your beloved well and then treat him/her well, and if you do not have children by more than one wife/husband. (21:14, 15; 22:13)
  • If, when you have children, then be sure you prayerfully raise them to be obedient and self-disciplined. If you don't the consequences could be serious. (21:18-21)
  • If you do not commit a sin worthy of death. (21:22)
  • If you find lost animals or items, do all in your power to find the owner and return them—without reward. (22:2)
  • If you are kind to animals. (22:6)
  • If you make safety first. (22:8)
  • If you refrain from immorality and impurity. (22:22-30; 24:3)
  • If you practice proper hygiene. (23:10)
  • If you keep your promises. (23:22)
  • If you value the personhood of everyone. (24:7; 24:12)
  • If you take punishment when you deserve it. (25:1-3)
  • If you don't want to marry your brother's wife if he dies, don't live with him. (This is hard to re-vision in today's terms) (25:5-8)
  • Even if you have failed and run into much difficulty, and then turn back to me. (30:4, 17)
  • If you remember, vengeance belongs to me and trust me to resolve issues and be just. (32:41)

    a happy wife, mother, grandmother, homemaker and educator. I take the motto, "Life is Forwardmoving," Which is my version of  "I press towards the mark..." Philippians 3:13-14. And that "mark." of course, is an eternity with our loving Savior, Jesus Christ! It's promised and I can't wait!
