Well that was a longer break than I expected :(
Much has happened.
I now own a different car.
I am still trying to not own a ute.
Donna's been away and returned.
From the US of A. Impressive, no?
I still can't think very well.
I painted and redecorated our bedroom.
So now it's time to return to the blog, clear out the mind cobwebs and try and write something meaningful, interesting and hopefully succinct.
Deuteronomy 23
It's a chapter that starts with a slight case of wincing. So much so I had to read the first verse a few times. My eyes still water.
There is a time to reflect on history with neighbours.
The cursing of the Ammonites and Moabites.
Recognition of the Edomites and the Egyptians.
And instructions on keeping the camp holy.
It's a lot of work.
There's a lot to remember.
There's more about looking out for your neighbour and your family.
Some basics about not doing dumb things that others do.
Keep clean, pure and honour God.
It is again a case of remembering the entire journey from Egypt to Canaan.
Remembering God's grace and patience.
And being aware that there are pitfalls all around.
The easiest way to not be distracted, is to focus on doing the right thing.
And stay away from things that will distract.
They are called distractions for a good reason.
Since my last post, the anniversary for the blog passed.
So, now more than a year has gone by from when I was driving home and thought,
"I could do a blog on my Bible reading."
"How hard could it be?"
Little did I know. ;)
So the second year begins. Sure, it's a little late. But it has now begun.
How hard could it be?
Let the good times roll......
