Joshua 15 -17; 1 Corinthians 8

1 Corinthians 8: 9 Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.

All I can think about is the story of The Saggy Baggy Elephant,
1-2-3 kick, dancing through the jungle leaving a path of wreckage behind her....
Just kind of going to ponder Your goodness today......quietly think about and pray how to live a life of being so loved......

And in the thinking about the wreckage I have left...when I see someone else dancing and leaving their own....remembering this verse... Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. (Colossians 3:13)

All this comes from thinking on this post....alot.....

And all during this THIS verse carries me.....Matt. 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
