Reflection Question for the day: Somebody Has To Do It.

Jerusalem is not the safest place to reside, yet the leaders of the Israelites are willing to cast lots to determine who will willingly stay.

What do you willingly do, because somebody has to do it?

What good comes of this (deed, task, etc) because of your sacrifice?

Reflection Question for the day: Purify Yourself.

How do you purify your mind?

How do you purify you Body?

How do you purify your Soul?

Wednesday:
#VerseOfTheDay

Reflection Question for the day: Keep the Sabbath Holy.

Nehemiah shuts down the merchants, who are selling goods on the Sabbath. He will have nothing of it. In our modern world the notion of missing a day of commercial exchange is unheard of…or is it? There are many businesses, mostly small, but some commercial retailers, who are closed on Sunday.

How do you keep the Sabbath Holy?
