A man who makes a vow to the Lord or makes a pledge under oath must never break it. He must do exactly what he said he would do. Numbers 30:2 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
A pledge is the same thing as a contract.
A contract can be verbal as well as written.
It can be between friends, or family as well as an employer. When you make a pledge to do something or not do something you should work your hardest to fulfill that pledge to the letter.
Anything else is a lie and Jehovah detests liars. Jehovah takes your word seriously, so you better as well.
The Lord detests lying lips. Proverbs 12:22 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
A man or woman is only as good as their word. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Now if circumstances beyond your control happen and you cannot fulfill the pledge that is forgivable.
Prayer: Please Holy Spirit El Emunah (Deuteronomy 7:9 The Faithful GOD ) bless me with the wisdom of when to say yes and when to say no. Please bless me with the fortitude to let my word be law in my life. I deeply implore this of You in the name of He whose word is the supreme law, Jesus Christ. Amen
May the light of Christs love shine brightly in your heart today and every dayJoseph a son of Jehovah

I am an unpaid live in care giver for my aged mother.
As well I regularly do volunteer work with a local church group helping working poor establish themselves independently. .
I love being in nature. I say the closer we get to nature the more we see Jehovah. We are blessed in this area with many amazing, easy to ride bicycle trails on old railroad lines that takes us all over Southern Ontario.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus," Ephesians 2:4-6
