A promise is a promise

Today: Deuteronomy 21-23

Have you ever had a flaky friend? You know, the one who repeatedly backs out of plans at the last minute? The one who promises to help you with something--but never follows through?

I think most of us have had a flaky friend or been a flaky friend at times. Have you ever flaked out on God?

I like what today's passage said here:

When you make a vow to God, your God, don't put off keeping it;
God, your God, expects you to keep it and if you don't you're guilty...
If you say you're going to do something, do it.
Keep the vow you willingly vowed to God, your God.
You promised it, so do it.
God always follows through on His promises to us. Let's try to keep our commitments to Him.
