- Do not wash your hair. Washing your hair will clean off any good things your body has absorbed that day (good health)
- Do not clean your house. This will remove anything good which has happened within your home (happy home)
- Do not loan money. This will allow the accumulation of wealth to continue (prosperity)
The bible also holds similar requests for us. We can find the many of the same "rules" throughout the Old and New Testament; too many to list here. Of course, if we listen to what is being said by all those rules we can see a pattern evolve. The pattern of putting God first in every decision we make, supporting and providing for our family, encourage friends and strangers to do their best, and to take care of ourselves.
In my discussions with people from all over the world I have learned many things. I will say, though, the one thing I've discovered is no matter the race, religion, sexual orientation, or abilities of human kind we are all the same. We all want peace, to be treated justly, and to live a joyous life lived with basic human freedoms. The things that divide us can be easily overcome by the embracing of our differences.
