As we look at the details put together in these scriptures what have you learned about God? Is there something that really stood out to you in today’s readings? How has it been looking up pictures of these items? What have you noticed?

After your time of silence, I want to challenge you to ask the Lord to give you a scripture for the day. When you ask, sit quietly and wait to see if a verse comes to mind. If it does – go read it. If not, thank the Lord for the time you got to spend together and be blessed. These are ways we get to start learning to hear the voice of the Lord.
