Sometimes we want something very much.
Maybe too much.
In the Torah, we learn about a promise.
A promise is saying, “I will really do this,” or “I will not do this.”
Sometimes a person makes a promise to help themselves.
Zum Beispiel:
David eats a lot of candy.
His mother tells him not to eat so much.
But every day he takes more candy.
Then David says,
“This week I will not eat candy.”
That promise helps him become stronger.
He learns how to say “no.”
But making a promise is not the most important thing.
The best thing is to learn to make good choices by yourself.
Then you do not need a special promise anymore.
God wants us to use the good things in the world in the right way.
We can enjoy nice things, but we should stay in control of our choices.
And if we make a promise, we should keep our word.
