Nov 24: Leviticus 1-4
The first 4 chapters of Leviticus weren't as action packed or as interesting as a lot of the other chapters I've read so far. It goes over burnt, grain, fellowship and sin offerings that people are to bring to the tent of meeting which was just created at the end of Exodus. I had a hard time thinking about what to write; it seemed like the things they did back then are so different than what we do now. God managed to pick something out for me though. All the animals that were being sacrificed were to be without defect. I guess this is a small favor for God to ask of but I think it shows how much we should respect and revere God by only bringing him the best. Now I know we aren't going to be sacrificing any animals to God, but this most certainly relates to our lives. Are we bringing our best efforts to serve and love God? I know I'm not. It's not an easy task either, but I'm glad God reminds me of this. It's not about reading the bible every day, or setting aside an hour a day for God; our entire lives should be a worship to him. Everything we do should be worship; it's not confined to just singing, writing and praying to him. As hard as this is, all I think I can do is to pray for obedience, pray for maturity, and pray that he will help me love him completely.
