Read with me cover-to-cover in 2025. Start the Old & New Testaments together on January 1. About 3 chapters per day. About 15 minutes of your day. Join us as the axe of Biblical Love thaws the frozen parts (66LL) in our hearts. My focus in 2025 is counseling yourself from the Word. We average 60,000 thoughts per day. Take courage. Talk to yourself from Truth. I am more emotional and pensive and overly-sensitive than most. I need to know how to truly live.

January 6 "Stiff-armed" Genesis 19-21
Lot was way too kind to angels yet offered his daughter to the care of mongrels. Gen 19:3. Kind to strangers yet distant at home.
Lot had become very comfortable with the sinful culture around him until his neighbors wanted the angels. His response to offer his daughters in terrifying. As Lot and his family made their escape, his wife turns back to gaze. Her heart was at home not with God. Sometimes we long for something that is not God's way or best for us, just as Lot's wife did, just as the Israelites did when they thought about the food and all they had in Egypt - forgetting they were slaves.
