SCRIPTURE: Gen. 49-50; Ps. 8; Luke 20

Genesis 49:18
I wait in hope for your salvation, God.

OBSERVATIONS: In the midst of this passage of describing his sons, this interjection just jumped out at me.

APPLICATION: Joey, maybe this fits with your recent theme of sitting down and shutting up–the better to hear the Word the God is speaking to you, that Christ is singing over you.

PRAYER: God, I’m so glad that you don’t need me to put your Word into my own. Help me to have a listening heart to better take hold of your plan for me. Through Christ, Amen.
