IF GOD WROTE YOU A LETTER
I love and value humility and honesty. Humbly serve me and tell the truth. Be a reliable person in character and word. Conversely, I detest dishonesty, and I let the proud trip over themselves. Truth tellers bridge gaps and liars build walls. If you want to invest in your future, pursue righteousness. Wealth won’t save you from my judgment.
Righteous living is not snobbery. It’s humility. And when humble people submit to me and love and serve one another, an entire city can blossom and produce peace in the land and security within its boundaries. If you plant seeds of truth and peace, you will be blessed. Those who pursue wickedness and those who gossip earn empty lives. Righteous and generous living is the best choice. Those who seek beauty or riches aside from growing their character will bloom for a season and then die. But those who seek me and allow me to live through them will thrive for the rest of their lives.
