November 24– Exodus 35:20-29
November 24– Exodus 35:20-29
20 Then all
the congregation of the people of Israel departed from the presence of
Moses. 21 And they came, everyone whose heart
stirred him, and everyone whose spirit moved him, and brought the Lord's contribution to be used for the
tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments. 22 So
they came, both men and women. All who were of a willing heart brought brooches
and earrings and signet rings and armlets, all sorts of gold objects, every man
dedicating an offering of gold to the Lord. 23 And every
one who possessed blue or purple or scarlet yarns or fine linen or goats'
hair or tanned rams' skins or goatskins brought them. 24 Everyone
who could make a contribution of silver or bronze brought it as the Lord's contribution. And every one who
possessed acacia wood of any use in the work brought it. 25 And
every skillful woman spun with her hands, and they all brought what they
had spun in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen. 26 All
the women whose hearts stirred them to use their skill spun the goats'
hair. 27 And the leaders brought onyx stones
and stones to be set, for the ephod and for the breastpiece, 28 and
spices and oil for the light, and for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant
incense. 29 All the men and women, the people of
Israel, whose heart moved them to bring anything for the work that the Lord had commanded by Moses to be
done brought it as a freewill offering to the Lord.
In verses 26 and 29 above
it talks about our hearts being stirred to use our skill and hearts being moved
to work for the Lord. In what ways do
you feel God stirring your heart to work for Him?
What talents has God given
you that you can use to give back to him?
What a wonderful God we
have that He gives us gifts to not only use to honor Him, but gifts that help
our families and loved ones. Be sure to
give back to the one who gave everything so we can have eternity with our
Creator.
Heavenly Father, I am so
full of thankfulness today for all You have done and continue to do daily to
bless me and my family. You teach us
things to not only enrich our lives, but things we can share with others to
help them grow closer to You. I don’t
have the words today that can convey how much I love You and how thankful I am
for who You are and how much You love us.
There are times we all feel forgotten, but You are The One we know never
forgets us. You are always there, ready
to listen, to love and to lead us to Your best.
Thank You for love we can’t understand, but are so incredibly grateful
to receive.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen!
