Bible Reading: Exodus 35-37, John 20:19-31
Reel Thoughts:
A few verses caught my attention:
Gather from among you an offering for Go. Recieve on God's behalf what everyone is willing to give as an offering.
Everyone whose heart was roused, whose spirit was freely reponive, brining offerings to God for the building of the Tent of Meeting
The people were ordered to stop bringing offerings! There was plenty of material for all the work to be done.
All this giving was in order to create a dwelling place for God to live. God put this gold, jewelry, and wealth in the people's possession, not for them to create a god unto themselves with it (which they'd previously done), but for them to give it the building of a place for Him to live. God still wants our stuff to be used to create places for Him to live, except now we're building temples on the inside of people.
