2nd Samuel 21

   


Good Friday morning! I trust your Christmas Day went well! We had an amazing gathering, and all were so gracious to us! Then the gift exchange was followed by a great feast, all while overlooking the lake down below—what a blessing all this has been.

The only downside about this week so far is that one of the relatives, a fine young boy of 19 months of age, has fallen ill with some kind of respiratory virus. He had a rough night last night and is starting out on a rough morning. Please pray for healing for little Arthur this morning as he heads to urgent care!

We have a couple more days here in Missouri before heading back to The Little Hundred Acre Wood in Texas. What a blessing it is to unplug and see a new area of God’s great beauty! Well, before I start rambling on and on, let’s get to Today’s Daily Bible Challenge, where we are jumping back into 2 Samuel 21 right where we left off earlier this week.

Some see a conflict in the Bible as we hear of another Goliath killed by someone other than young David before he became king. Research has been done, and this is most likely Goliath’s brother. But in such things I challenge you to dig for yourself—with all the AI and sites like GotQuestions and Bible Gateway, there is no reason to rely on someone else for your research! For me, I know that the more research I do, the more my faith is strengthened!

There is a lot more detail here in this chapter, but I have already taken too much of your time. Please click the link below and listen to chapter 21 for yourself!

Talk with you soon!

Revelation 3 Don't be luke warm!

         Good morning, it is the day so many long for, Saturday at last! For any of you in Israel and other parts of the world, Happy Sabbath to all of you. Although some will think it is untrue, my Sabbath is Sunday, I base this on Mark 2:27, but as my Sundays are filling with church work, I may start Saturday Sabbaths soon! If you are new here, welcome to The Daily Bible Challenge, where we are reading/listening to the whole Bible cover to cover. We aren’t doing this for foolish bragging rights but to learn more about God directly from God, instead of just gossip about God from others! Who knows if those have even read the Bible!     Today we are in the book of Revelation chapter 3. It has a lot to digest, but also has so many new questions for us to research. I will not be your teacher, God and your own heart will do that! I am more here to challenge, entice, and even beg you to read and dig in for yourself. After all, I believe ...

Judges 7 God dealing with the pride of man, through Gideon

Image
 Good morning, we have made it to Wednesday, and all is good! What an incredible God story we have in Today’s Daily Bible Challenge as we read/listen to Judges 7. I can only imagine what Gideon must have been feeling as God took away twenty-two thousand of his soldiers. God did this as Gideon was preparing for a battle in which he was already outnumbered by tens of thousands! But Gideon remained faithful, and then God took it from ten thousand to just three hundred! Would you have argued with God, or maybe even just fled for your life?  Are you wondering why God would have done this? In my youth, I wondered about it too! Through this life, I have struggled foolishly with pride for many years, but God has a way of humbling us! Many years ago, God humbled us in ways that shook our lives to the very core! Then, much later in life, God used a great program called Re/Generation to show me how I still struggled with pride and just how many of my sin patterns were originating out of ...

1st Kings 4 Promises kept, although slower that planned!

    Good morning, I hope this letter finds you and yours well. We are doing well here on The Little Hundred Acre Wood. With two hounds at my feet and a tiny cat in my lap, I write to all of you with great joy in my heart! It has been such a blessing to see this blog grow so much this past year, not for my gain but for God’s glory. Please humor me as I catch up on some details for long-time readers on our project list here on the homestead.   The pressure washing will start here on the house today, and the paint should start Monday if the weather holds up for us. Some of the siding got dirty as this project started over two years ago. (even under a real tarp, dirt crept in). A brother from church has asked to do the work, and he is very experienced with painting with the high-pressure spray type rig I am providing. I have to get another five-gallon pail of paint, a case of caulk, and the trim paint this weekend, and lots of protective covering material for the deck and sto...
