Random Thoughts

After much deliberation and putting aside my reservations, I decided to join a Beth Moore Bible study on the book of Daniel. We are five weeks in and I have to say, "Wow!"

Generally, at the beginning of the study there is a history lesson behind the current chapter/verses, and then there are five daily lessons (I usually cram and do them all on Tuesday night) which allow for personal application of what you have learned. This week we talked about how King Belshazzar had the consecrated vessels of God, which were taken from God's temple, and toasted his foreign false gods with them.

The personal application of this section was a reminder that we are God's consecrated vessels, that His Spirit dwells in those who believe in and on Him. What idols, what false gods are we as His consecrated vessels choosing to "raise our glasses to"?

Way To Go, JoAnn!

I have been wanting to write for a week now, but nothing has really come to mind. My friend JoAnn over at Growing In God's Grace has a wonderful entry on what God is showing her and doing in her life. It is a wonderful read and her thoughts speak to my heart as well.
