verses read: Daniel 2:24-49, Proverbs 11:2
prayer: 10 minutes
This is the part where Daniel interprets the "Statue" dream. The statue which was made of many materials and metals etc. And he interprets the dream as a series of successive kingdoms coming into power and finally the Lord Himself will establish a Kingdom that will never fall. The study Bible says that the kingdom represented by the half iron, half clay feet is the post-Roman empire, made up of disparate states. But perhaps, we are living in that kingdom, where there really isn't any one real king. But the Day of the Lord will arrive; it's not a matter of if, but when.
I've been feeling different the last few days. Somehow, I felt that my faith was shaken by the whole experience. Laid 2 bricks yesterday. Only adds up to a bigger barrier in the end. Doing the spiritual gifts analysis test; my highest scorer was still faith, but that dropped by one point. Perhaps that's a warning and a message from God that I need to put my trust and hope in Him. Leave the whole matter to His hands, and He will provide something that is good; something that is best for me.
When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. - Proverbs 11:2
