Day 25: 340 days left…93 books to go!

Exodus 16 & 17 
  • The Israelites are wandering through the dessert now and lose trust in God all over again...they cry out for food & wonder why they didn't stay in Egypt where they were at least fed...but Moses says to them: "In the evening you will know that it was the LORD who brought you out of Egypt, and in the morning you will see the glory of the LORD, because he has heard your grumbling against him.  Who are we that you should grumble against us?"  Chapter 16, Verses 6 & 7...
Matthew 20:17-34  
  • It's so crazy to me that Jesus knew what was coming to Him in Jerusalem...He knew in detail that He would be condemned, turned over to the Gentiles, mocked, flogged & crucified...and yet He willingly continued on His journey... Verses 17-19...
  • "Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave- just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to his His life as a ransom for many."  Verses 26-28...
      •   I need to find tangible ways in which God can use me as a servant, so that I can understand how to live the life Jesus did on earth....
