His Poiema

Still behind, but moving along, I finished Leviticus and started Numbers today. 

S:  Numbers 3:7  "They shall perform the duties for him (Aaron) and for the whole congregation before the tent of meeting, to do the service of the tabernacle."

O:  God is a God of order. He gave clear instructions as to the construction of the tabernacle in Exodus, now He appoints those who would work in and care for it.  He assigned specific duties to specific families of Levites so that everyone would understand their role and purpose.

A:  Life is easier when we have clearly defined roles.  A lack of clarity in our purpose and responsibilities leads to confusion, anxiety, depression and chaos.  Trying to assume roles and responsibilities that God hasn't given to us also causes stress and worry. 

P:  Lord, help me to clearly understand my roles and purpose as a wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend etc.  Help me to not overstep my bounds in any of these areas and let me learn to serve without complaint in the duties that you have outlined for me.   Thank you for your Word which teaches me to know what you require of me.

"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them" Ephesians 2:10 Poiema is the Greek word for workmanship =) This is me, walking.... sometimes missing the signs but the Lord is always kind to make them larger the next time around.
