NUMBERS 34-35:
Yesterday we heard the listing of the stages of
the nomadic journey of the people of Israel. God began giving
instructions for the time when the people would enter the promised
land.
PSALM 47:
This
is a jubilant song of praise. This has been a special Psalm for our
family. We remember singing this whole Psalm with one of our
favorite churches. And when we were in Indonesia, they made a
recording and we listened to it many times.
ACTS 6:
Yesterday we heard Peter and the apostles give
fearless testimony before the Jewish high council. They were
beaten, but counted it an honor.
