Today's Reading
Daniel. Again, God establishes His own power over all the earth. It's amazing that the Jews refused to fully honor and trust God so the Lord allowed them to be taken captive. During their captivity, God kept showing Himself strong to the pagan rulers who had imprisoned them.
2 Peter. The earth will be destroyed by fire. The only thing that makes it through are human souls. What does that say about the way we invest our lives?
Psalms. "But you are near, O Lord..." This theme is repeated in numerous ways throughout the Bible. When we have trials, it seems that God is so far away, but the opposite is true. Do you long for His presence? He is near!
Proverbs. "Showing partiality is never good,
yet some will do wrong for a mere piece of bread." I read a recent study in which 25% of corporate workers would willingly steal company secrets if it would help a family member or friend have a better chance for a job.
These are "real world" Scriptures that apply to our daily lives. What is speaking to you?
