You should know in your heart that as man chastens his son, so the Lord your God chastens you. Therefore, you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in his ways and to fear him. Deuteronomy 8: 5-6

“For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land with streams of water, springs, and deep water sources, flowing in both valleys and hills; a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey; It is a land where food is plentiful and nothing is lacking. It is a land where iron is as common as stone, and copper is abundant in the hills. When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land he has given you. Beware lest you forget the Lord your God, in not keeping his commandments, and his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you this day. You should know in your heart that as man chastens his son, so the Lord your God chastens you.” Lord, give us grateful, thankful, hearts!
