Day 137/252 - Saturday 1st March

Thought charting Deuteronomy would be scary with all the Law we are interpreting but it was awesome!!
The heart of God under the Law is way more simple than I ever realised, it's all about LOVE.

Extract from my charts:
Law #1 Interpretation: Every seventh year you shall grant a release. The Lord commands Israel to release any of their fellow brothers, who they have lent money to, in the seventh year. He tells them there shall be no poor among them. The Lord is setting up a nation with a good economy and good structure. He doesn’t want there to be those who are bound by debt and enslaved that way to one another forever. I think God’s heart behind this is that those who cannot earn enough to pay it back, through no fault of their own, should be released and set free. He’s giving the opportunity to the rich brother to grant their poor brother freedom. 

I've learnt a lot about tithing and giving this week!
