I had never noticed the 'tar pits' before.
The animals of sacrifice were all cut in half and then a burning torch passed between them.
What an interesting promise from God for Hagar's son? Hate everyone and be hated by everyone, a wild donkey.
Matthew 5:43-6:24
It is interesting how we find it easy to be nice to people who are nice to us, everyone seems to be able to do this. The phrase 'as thick as thieves' comes to mind, even nasty people are nice to people who support them! We are called by God to live differently, to be nice to people when they are nasty, not just in our actions, but wholeheartedly.
Again Jesus talks about doing the right things for the right reasons.
I think it is funny to not let one hand know what the other is doing-my friend Ollie should do a funny drama about this verse.
God I pray today that you name may be hallowed.... in my actions, in my words.
We need to be careful about what we are looking at, what we allow into our body affects who we are.
Psalm 6:1-10
God doesn't always answer our prayers when we want Him to or how we want Him to! He is still God, we don't worship nd serve Him because he does what we want Him to. He is not our puppet.
