Verse of the day - Exodus 20:7 (NRSV)
You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not acquit anyone who misuses his name.
In chapter 10 of my first book, Jesus speaks to us about taking His name in vain.
Excerpt from Spirituality, A Journey For My Soul
Do not take My name in vain. This grieves Me deeply. Many times My dear children are so used to taking My name in vain that they do not even realize they are doing it. It becomes part of their everyday language. Please refrain from this.
God gave us the Ten Commandments as rules to live by. The Second Commandment speaks about not taking the name of God in vain. Many times, people curse by using God's name without even realizing it. Sometimes it will become part of their everyday language. This hurts God deeply. His name is meant to be held in deep respect.
