The blog is being tempermental for me in the comment section, so I will make a whole new post today. These thoughts follow the January 18 reading.....seems like there is an awful lot of sinning going on, huh? People were taking matters into their own hands.....Sarah was helping God along with is promise, and we got Ishmael....Lot's daughters were helping along the blessing of children and we got two more enemy nations for the Jews. There are consequences to every decision we make: back then and now. This reading has total application for today's culture. I know that I am sometimes guilty of asking God to bless MY plans instead of listening for what He has planned.
I received an awesome book from a friend that I must recommend: "Jesus Calling", by Sarah Young. .....Today's reading fits right in:
I am leading you along the high road, but there are descents as well as ascents. In the distance you see snow-covered peaks glistening in brilliant sunlight. Your longing to reach those peaks is good, but you must not take shortcuts. Your assignment is to follow Me, allowing Me to direct your path. Let the heights beckon you onward, but stay close to me...........Walk hand in hand with Me through this day, I have lovingly planned every inch of the way......
Have you ever thought about it like that?????
Great book to purchase...you can get it on your iPhone if you like and start reading today...
That's a Man of War jelly fish.....do you feel like Leviticus is DEEP.....lots of rules. Lots of Law....God is teaching the people how to approach him....Hang in there....
Just downloaded the book on my I phone.......thanks
