G90X - The Bible in 90 Days at The Gathering

DAY THIRTY-SEVEN (Nehemiah 13:15 – Job 7)

Love how Nehemiah fought for God’s honor! (Nehemiah 13:25)

The same priest who made an exception based on a close relationship in Nehemiah 13:4 did it again in verse 28.  Stupid.

I love the book of Esther!  Glad to have finally reached it in the reading…

I found it a bit double-standardish (it’s a word now!) that the King got rid of Queen Vashti over a character issue (her refusal to submit) but chose to replace her based on a beauty contest. (Esther 2:3-4)

As many times as I’ve heard (and read) the famous Esther verse (4:14 – “for such a time as this), I’d never noticed that Esther and Mordecai didn’t have that conversation face to face, but rather through a messenger.

We’re in big trouble when we assume that God wants to honor us more than others. (Esther 6:6)

Esther 6:13 – seems that they needed this discernment at the end of chapter 5.

Job 6:21 – real friends don’t run from the pain in others
