. . .that if the peoples of the land bring wares or any grain to sell on the Sabbath day, we would not buy from them on the Sabbath, or on a holy day . . .” Nehemiah 10:31
We can’t stop others from selling, but we have a choice about what we buy into.
Lord, I desire what I can only have from being with You. And here’s a simple poem . . .
I Don’t Think So
We don’t have to
be rude
in order not to buy
what is being sold.
We can turn to God
and away
with a “thank you” but
“I don’t think so.”
