verses read: Daniel 5:18 - 6:28, Proverbs 11:8
prayer: 5 minutes
Daniel goes on to interpret the writing on the wall. 3 different words appear, each is a measurement of weight. And the interpretation is that (overall) the Babylonian empire would fall. And it does, that very night. And the new Medo-Persian empire comes to power with King Darius at the throne. Chapter 6 is about the lion's den, which most of us would be familiar with. Anyway, completed the readings for AnnTiC.
The camp starts in just a few days; am looking forward to it! Just not looking forward to number of emails I've been receiving! But hopefully everything will be settled (on my side) after today!
The strength and willpower of man is weak. And giving into temptation is often the easy way out. My prayer times have been getting shorter the last few days, simply because I don't know what to pray about; well, laid another two yesterday. Giving in is just so easy. I guess in some sense that is why I'm looking forward to next week, have one whole week away to think and reflect about everything.
The righteous man is rescued from trouble, and it comes on the wicked instead. - Proverbs 11:8
I wonder which part of that proverb I actually belong to.
