A whimpering puppy woke me up around 4:30 this morning. As I was getting up to take her potty my nose decided it was going to bleed profusely... I had a client today at 10, when I went out to my car the heater wouldn't work... I have zero motivation for anything today and am completely exhausted. I did redbox a couple of movies, "Courageous" and "The Help." Both were fantastic and made me cry on several occasions. My sweet friend Esther came over to enjoy one of them with me, it's been a couple of weeks since we got to spend time together. I always enjoy her company, she makes me laugh.
I did not get a darn thing accomplished today, I'm still so tired.
Thoughts on today:
PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE
Relationships are always worth restoring.
Talk to God before talking to another person.
Always take the initiative.
Sympathize with their feelings.
Confess your part of the conflict.
Attack the problem, not the person.
Cooperate as much as possible.
Emphasize reconciliation, not resolution.
BIBLE IN A YEAR
Today's passages: Genesis 47, 48, 49, 50
Joesph's family settled in Goshen. Jacob blessed Pharaoh. They sold all their livestock to Pharaoh for food. As the livestock ran out so did the money. They sold themselves as slaves to Pharaoh for food. Pharaoh owned all the land but agreed to give them seed to harvest, 1/5 of the harvest must be given to Pharaoh in exchange. Jacob was nearing the end of his life and asked Joseph to bury him where his fathers were buried. Joseph agreed. (Genesis 47)
Joseph visited his sick father along with his 2 sons. Jacob blessed his 2 grandsons, saying the younger will be greater than the older. (Genesis 48)
Jacob tells what will become of his sons, the 12 tribes of Israel. Jacob passed away. (Genesis 49)
Joseph had his father embalmed, it took 40 days. The Egyptians mourned for 70 days. Pharaoh allowed Joseph to take his father to his burial place. Joseph's brothers were concerned that he would turn on them now that Jacob was gone. They begged for his forgiveness. Joseph said that everything happened the way it was supposed to, that evil was made into good. Joseph passed away. (Genesis 50)
Yay! I read 1 whole book of the bible!!!
