Exodus 36

(March 16, 2014)
I have an interesting thought from this chapter, and I am not sure that I will adequately develop it.  But I find it noteworthy that at some point Moses tells the people of Israel that the Lord has received enough.  I think that sometimes we think that the perfect life is one in which absolutely everything is given to the Lord.  And while I firmly agree that we must be ready to give everything to the Lord, I don’t think that He often actually requires that of us.  Instead He requires that we provide Him enough for what He asks.  Sometimes that is everything we have, and sometimes it is very little.  In all cases, we must be ready to give Him everything, though.
