March 7, Day 66

Today's Reading

Numbers. As this book draws to a close, we are given a task list for the various offerings to be given and the festivals the Hebrews celebrate each year. While I'm sure that this list has been reformed over the years, Jewish people still celebrate each festival. The traditions give great meaning to our faith.  No doubt they kept this chapters in mind, almost like a "Festival shopping list" that, in modern times, we might attach to our refrigerator with a magnet.

Vows are meant to be taken seriously.  Our culture seems to ignore them these days.  On the other hand, I have seen a thoughtless vow become a chain of bondage that destroys hope.  Thank God for His grace in those occasions!
