Deuteronomy 10.12-13


When you are graduating or near graduating, people ask questions. Questions like...
• What are you going to do now? College? Tech School? Job lined up? Military service?
• What school are you attending? What's your major?

What we are about to read is what God wants for each and every person here, regardless of what stage of life we may currently be in.
