February 24

Today's Reading

Leviticus. Obviously, based on our recent discussion, the section on "bodily discharge" is about health statutes. The description of The Day of Atonement is vivid. The High Priest had to symbolically cleanse himself, then his family. Then he offered sacrifice for the people. This was the only day of the year that ANYONE could go behind the veil into the Holy of Holies (or "Most Holy Place") which represented the presence of God. What are your thoughts or questions?

Mark. Much of my early church experience included forms of legalism. Legalism is an attempt to quantify God's Law and make a person right by outward performance. Jesus describes something much different here.

Psalms. Isn't it amazing how much our hearts long for God in difficult times? Yet we humanly want to avoid difficulty at all costs!

Proverbs. I want to always treasure knowledge. How about you?

I hope to hear from you today!
