~ It Is Not So Difficult ~

Now what I am commanding you today
is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach.
It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask,
"Who will ascend into heaven to get it
and proclaim it to us so that we may obey it?"
Nor is it beyond the sea,
so that you have to ask,
"Who will cross the sea to get it
and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?"
No, the word is very near you;
it is in your mouth and in your heart
so you may obey it.

See, I set before you today life and prosperity,
death and destruction.
For I command you today
to love the Lord your God,
to walk in His ways,
and to keep His commands, decrees and laws;
then you will live and increase,
and the Lord you God will bless you in the land
you are entering to possess.

. . . Now choose life,
so that you and your children may live
and that you may love the Lord your God,
listen to His voice and hold fast to Him.
For the Lord is your life . . ..

(Deuteronomy 30:11-16, 19.5-20.5)
