my devotions
hey guys,
what up? here is my devotions for today!
What i read: 2 Chronicles 29-30
What i learned: finally i have a chance to read about a king who seems like he is going to make it! this king purifies the temple, but not only does he do that, he also calls people to come back to worship at the temple once again. he has the priests and levites purified so that they can do the sacrifices, and he sends out messengers to both cities of israel and Judah and asks all people to come back to the Lord. He is first out of all the kings who tries to unify the people once again. of course there are some people who totally refuse to do these things, but there are some people who come and there is great rejoicing and there is a great celebration as the people are unified once again through God. it is actually a cool story to read, almost tear dropping to see how the people are coming together once again to come and see that God is moving and to celebrate the God who brought them out of Egypt, and to remember how God had brought them out.
What i am going to do: well i tend to forget about all the great things that God has done for me, and maybe it is a good idea to have my own time to go back and remember all the thigns that God has done for me throughout my short life thus far. i mean i don't think i would be where i am now if it wasn't for the God that i serve.

Jacob Meets Esau
Hey dudes, i hope you guys had an awesome Monday! I'm still pretty exhausted aha
What a romantic ending for these 2
It must've been hard to look Esau in the face, but surprisingly Esua took him and embraced him. However, although there was cleared surfaces between them, Jacob still had a core of guilt insdie of him, not wanting to go with his brother, thus choosing to go to Succoth.
I remember when there was a time where i did something bad, and it was hard to confess, but even HARDER to accept the fact that they said it was ok. I rather have something hurt me and take out all their anger out on me then for someone to say it's ok. I don't know why, it just makes me feel bad, btu when they like kickj me or whatever it's break even.
well That's just me!
I hope you guys have a sick Tuesday!

Re: my devotions
I'm wondering... through all that has happened, whether, like Jacob said, Jacob went to Succoth because he was feeling guilty about all his wrongdoing against Esau, or because he wanted to own more land for himself rather than live in Esau's land.
In my opinion... I thought the latter because Jacob has so far worked in order to increase his own land and possessions you know? But it's good that the siblings made up, or that Esau forgave Jacob for his backstabbing ways.
I personally didn't learn anything from this Chapter yet... um... ya... it was a good chapter though =]
