"They said: "The LORD commanded my lord to apportion the land by lot for a heritage among the Israelites; and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the heritage of Zelophehad our kinsman to his daughters. But if they marry into one of the other Israelite tribes, their heritage will be withdrawn from our ancestral heritage and will be added to that of the tribe into which they marry; thus the heritage that fell to us by lot will be diminished. When the Israelites celebrate the jubilee year, the heritage of these women will be added to that of the tribe into which they marry and their heritage will be withdrawn from that of our ancestral tribe."" Numbers 36:2-4
Numbers 36 - God knows, we have to ask. When God gave instruction to give the heritage of Zelophehad to his daughters, He knew it could diminish the lot of that tribe, why did He not add to His instructions? In our relationship with God we have to ask, He draws us to Him and He seeks us to ask for His input. In your other relationship do you just blindly follow? In asking for clarity with this question it shows the understanding of all of God's instructions and it created a dilemma, what do we do? God draws us closer and in our relationship it requires us to ask, to seek input so we know the will of God. ""And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Luke 11:9
What is God saying to me: clarity is given to those who ask, our relationship isn't just one way, we work together. I gave you a mind to think and use, it is a gift.
Dear Lord God, You bring clarity into all situations when we seek You. In the stillness You speak, I see the clarity You gave this week through the words of others. I see You drawing me closer and giving understanding in situations. You know, I must ask. Thank You Father for Your gifts and for Your patients. In our trials we are learning who we are and how we need to depend upon You. Prayers for a family member needing help, You Lord are the Great Healer and You are healing in this situation. Bless this day Lord, may I go and do Your will, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Peace, Pray for us.
