The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Zechariah 8:16-17, “’These are the things which you should do:

speak the truth to one another; judge with truth and judgment for

peace in your gates. 17 ‘Also let none of you devise evil in your

heart against another, and do not love perjury; for all these are

what I hate,’ declares the LORD.”

While it is always necessary to view Scripture in its own context,

there are instances where spiritual directives in the Old Testament

can be applied to our lives today. These verses are one of those

instances. What is more, they are not just “rules” for “rules’ sake;

they are given that we might live in peace.

May you enjoy peace today as you live to glorify Christ Jesus,

Nana & Dado III
