Laws, Logic, and Blessings

Laws, Logic, and Blessings

Just as we as parents make rules for our children to teach them and keep them safe, our Heavenly Father does the same for us. The rules that we make for our children are not random or abitrary. They are made out of reason. Some rules are forever because the conditions around them never change other rules evolve as our children grow older and are able to make better decisions. As we are better able to comprehend the world, the laws and as we mature we gain understanding of His ways we also earn the blessings that were promised with the laws. One of the most remarkable promises I have read in the Bible was that if we follow His commandments we shall be known as a wise and compassionate people. What an amazing promise and blessing that is, what parent does not want that for their children? If we don't see the logic behind a command that means we haven't gotten there yet, but line upon line, precept upon precept we can and we will.
