  “Because”

Obey God 
And always do what is right.

Never lie, but always tell the truth,
even if it gets you into trouble.

Always be good to others
and never do anything that might hurt them.

Psalm 15:   Obey God

Never say anything bad about anyone.

Don't hang around with kids
who don't believe in God,
but make friends with the kids that do.

Always do what you say you are going to do,
even if when the time comes it isn't easy.

Always share the things you have
without expecting something back.

Never get someone into trouble
so you can get something out of it.

If you do these things,
you will be blessed.

  And you will live in the house of God forever.
