6. WE MUST NOT KILL We know that this is bad and we would never do anything so bad.

7. WE MUST NOT COMMIT ADULTERY This is a commandment older people understand but it is a commandment to help us be happy. This commandment means that we respect our bodies and other people's bodies too. We keep our bodies clean. Our bodies were made to have children, which is a gift given to us by God and we only use this gift when we are married.

8. WE MUST NOT STEAL Why? Because God loves us. God wants us to be happy. When we are dishonest we are never happy. Wickedness never brings happiness. I see kids at juvenile hall, locked up, because they were dishonest. They stole things and now they have their freedom taken away. If you have done bad things, how do you fix it? You tell God you are sorry and you will never do the bad thing again. This is called repentance. You try to make up to the person you hurt. Why would Jesus tell us not to steal? Because when we steal – we loose our freedom. We have guilt to live with. We are not happy.

9. WE MUST NOT FEAR FAULSE WITNESS – which means we should not tell lies. Telling lies is about the worst thing you can do. You never want to tell lies about another person. You will hurt them but you will also hurt yourself. When you tell lies Jesus knows it – so you don’t get away with it and when you break the commandments you aren’t worthy for the blessings that he has to give to you when you do obey him.

10. WE MUST NOT COVET. – What does covet mean? It’s when you want what someone else has. When you are jealous. What does coveting someone or being jealous of him or her do to you? It makes you unhappy. You are never content with what you have. How you do stop coveting others things? You become grateful for what you do have! You become happy for other people and the things that they have and for the gifts God has blessed them with.

Living the Ten Commandments can make us happy and we will make Jesus happy too.
