How will people hear about the goodness of God if you do not tell others. I urge you to try to communicate to others the important principle about the goodness of God that we talk about frequently. How will people know about the goodness of God if we do not tell them? God's commandments, His law, are intended to help us in life. They can prosper us and help us to have success in life.
Joshua 1:7-8 NKJV says,
Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. 

Yeshua came to help us follow the law and have a good life. John 10:10 NKJV says, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." That is why He said in Matthew 7:13-14 NKJV, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." Do not go along with the crowd; keep God's commandments. Yeshua came to help mankind return to God's commandments so that we would have a good life, a more abundant life. Some use this scripture in John to mean God's wants us to be rich. While having the means to take good care of ourselves is a good thing, Yeshua came to help us follow God the way we are supposed to and not just made-up theology or made-up commandments. Matthew 15:9 NKJV says, "And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."
