I took a mental health day today and am sitting at the kitchen table drinking coffee. My daily reading has me in the book of Judges and as usual, I ended up with a crinkled forehead from deep thought and have landed on a study note that led me to reach for my iPad , open the WordPress app and start writing. It will be short because I don’t think this is where I need to record any of my own thoughts. God’s word speaks for itself.
This study is is taken in part from Judges 19:1-21:25; it refers to a concubine being raped and left for dead and then cut into 12 pieces and one piece sent to each of the 12 tribes of Israel.
When they stopped letting God lead them, they became no better than the evil people around them. When they made laws for their own benefit, they set standards far below God’s. When you leave God out of your life, you may be shocked at what you are capable of doing.
Coming soon: Pondering the concubine and worshipping God through other images. These two topics will keep my mind busy.
