...you shall not do

          as they do...

You shall not

   walk in their statutes.

You shall follow My rules

and keep My statutes

     and walk in them:

I am the LORD

            your God.

            Leviticus 18. 3-4

(Our lives should look different

     because our hearts

                     are different.

Whom or what we worship

  -- and everyone worships

                      something--

changes everything about us.

The LORD

          is your God.)

O LORD,

Please help us

   to keep our eyes on You,

and not just walk in Your ways,

          but walk with You.

May our lives

    point others to You

by what we do and say,

          our attitudes,

and how we love You

         and those around us.

Whether we understand

      Your ways or not,

we can be assured

   there is a divine design

   seamlessly woven in them,

not a matter of following rules

              but following You.
