As I read today in Luke's gospel, Jesus was taken from the synagogue in Nazareth to a cliff to be thrown off. How amazing it was that I was at that cliff, overlooking the valley of Medigo. My trip to Israel certainly helps put the bible in perspective. I'm very thankful for the trip I was blessed with, and am looking forward to hopefully repeating that experience with Audrey.
I read today about the flood, and what took place after the flood, all the way to Abram. However, I stopped at a phrase that I was very thankful to read. Gen 9:1 reads "So God blessed Noah, and his sons...". I love that the blessing did not stop with Noah, but continued to his kids. That's my prayer - as God has so blessed me, may His blessing reach to my kids. May they walk in the favour and blessing of the Lord. And may they, like Noah, find grace in the eyes of the Lord, and live righteous and just lives in the midst of a wicked and violent generation.
