3-Commitment to a life of service to others

4-Committing your desires into writing , as well as making very important disclosures-inclusive of  writing a will/deeds of transfer, along with giving sound education to your children and spouse; and of course upgrading your self every day in knowledge, skill and wisdom.

5-Commending yourself, your family to God (in prayers), and commending by affirming your self, your spouse, your children and those you meet from time to time

6-Commitment to building friendship, genuine and affectionate friendship between our children and also with our selves

8-Commitment to sacrificial honouring of our parents not only by word of mouth but by your body language, call them; and also, by what comes out of your pocket to them.

9-Commanding our household members and children to serve and obey God.

10. Commitment to building social equity and doing it-investing time and resources into it, making the world a fairer and better place every day in our little corners

 I want to conclude this exhortation with prayer  for you from Zechariah 8:4-5
