What Good Are The Ten Commandments?

January 18, 2013, by Zack No comments yet

What is the purpose of the 10 Commandments?

Are they arbitrary rules?

D.A. Carson gives a helpful explanation in The God Who Is There:

You found the blog home of two big kids (that would be the parents) and four little ones.

This blog has changed quite a bit over the years. There was a time that I posted almost every morning as part of my routine. But that was several kids and several years ago.

These days, the posts are a lot more rare, but hopefully more substantial. And all those posts from the past are still here in the archives.

Feel free to have a look around...

I love these photos. The first one captures my husband and his uncle Jamie (isn’t he cute?) When @created4worship and I first started talking on the phone/getting to know each other, his uncle Jamie would be in the background laughing and teasing Zack. It wasn’t until a few years later that he took his life. There are so many people who struggle with depression and the darkness that encompasses their every day life. Jamie was a believer and I often hear people say how much they miss him. I miss him. I miss his laugh. I miss his jokes and his lightheartedness. I like to think about the influence and investment he poured into @created4worship. I get to see glimpses of that in the mundane. How Zack loves me and our kids fiercely. Today is National Suicide prevention day. I’d like to say that Uncle Jamie is the only one I’ve personally known who has lost their life to suicide. Before Jamie there was another named Junior. His death stung too. I miss them. So much. At different times and spaces I’m reminded of the void they left. Everyone is dealing with struggles. Look around you. See the people who look like they’re struggling. Chances are they are. They matter. You matter. Give them a hug. Ask them if they are ok. Sometimes they will be honest and sometimes they won’t, but acknowledge that you see them and their hurt and pain. Also...let those people around you...family, friends, loved ones. Tell them I’m grateful for you. I love you. Because life is too short. It’s a fight. A spiritual battle. A war. #bitsaboutme #savorthesetimes #dayarelongyearsshort

@ruthchousimons is every bit what you’d expect. Gracious. Kind. Humble. What started out as loving her art work and her posts about motherhood turned into gratitude for how God is using her platform to turn others to Him. We chatted about this very thing when I met her at @jamieivey live event. So proud of her book #beholdandbecomingbook launching today. Who are you becoming? Who do you want to be in ten years? Who you are today shapes who you will be tomorrow and the next year and so on. Go grab your copy! It’s lovely and beautiful.
