Tomorrows reading starts to jump around - be sure you click 'our reading' to the right and print off a copy for easier tracking.

Finished Exodus - tent/tabernacle complete and all were pleased, God's 'glory' fills tent and his presence with them both day and night via cloud/fire.

Notes for Mark's reading on yesterday's post.

Exodus
The building of the Tabernacle is now complete – Moses inspects every detail. Not sure how much Moses was in the actually construction, but seems to have been very involve in putting all items together and their placement.

Mark
See comments/notes from yesterday.

Hey Scott, got my first chance to view the site and read the selected scriptures.
Interesting thing though- I read an article about John Edwards wife and her cancer struggle and in it she basically said that she doesn't believe that God heals or protects, because her son died in a car crash. If God were going to save someone, it should've been him. So,since she has cancer all she can really hope for is enlightenment not healing. Sounds a little Zen Buddist rather than Christian faith based! Anyway the point I wanted to make is The Psalms scripture seems to deal with that issue. How do we as Christians deal with it when we don't feel God's protecting us or our families and can't see His healing?
How do we bring comfort to others? Intellectually, I know our hope lies in Heaven and we must trust His knowledge of past, present and future. But how do we confidently share this belief with others who don't believe? And when the emotions block our faith based "intellect" and Satan attacks through sickness etc., what then? How do I explain to my kids that although I BELIEVE God can heal people, why HE hasn't healed our close friend Sherrie's cancer?
