My Journey Through The Bible; Part 1

Genesis-Leviticus

NOTE: I am by no means preaching. I'm not saying I am right or wrong. I am merely giving my opinion, to which was are all entitled to.

So, in a week I have read through the first 3 books of the Bible; Genesis, Exodus and Leviticus. I found myself a little confused and drifting off with so-and-so begot this person and that. I highlighted a few thing for a later discussion with Hubby. But out of all 3 of theses book the one thing that stuck out to me. The one thing that stopped me dead in my tracks. (now I've seen a lot of people take the word and use it to benefit their opinions, there needs. We all get something out of reading the Bible and this is what I got.)

"Sanctify to Me, all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb[...]both of man and animal; it is Mine." -Exodus 13:2

After reading that, I stopped and just stared the the words me and was oddly at peace. I've said that before but this time was for real, I guess. Of course I still have questions as to why. And those questions will never be answer. But reading was kind of like reading God's answer to why Shealyn was taken.

A lot of ancient theorist believe that the "pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night" that escorts Moses and his people out of Egypt (Exodus 13:21-22); where UFOs and aliens. Hey anything is possible but what I found a little odd was Mose's face "shining" after being up in the mountain with the Lord for an extended period of time. (Exodus 34:29-35) How is that not radiation?

A few other things stuck out to me, Like the creation of "male and female in Our image"(Gen 1:26). And then, "God formed man of dust, and breathed life into his nostrils..." -(Gen 2:7).  And then Adam being put in a deep sleep and his rib being taken to make Eve. Perhaps this is a story of 2 "Eves".

I love this one "If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well sin lies at the door. And it's desire is for you, but you should rule over it." -(Gen 4:7) What I got from this is if you do good (intentions, deeds, or doing something with good intentions) you will be accepted in the Heaven. But if you do "good" with other intentions corruption and evil, miss fortune and bad luck wait for you.

"The Lord is my strength..."-Exodus 15:2

 I believe and Love God. I don't need religion or a book to tell me that. He created many trials throughout my life and I thank him for everyone because it molded me in to the person I am today. Although I am still trying to find out who that person is. But I am whole heartily looking forward to it. After all life is a never ending lesson, to grow and learn from and you and I will continue to grow and learn until the day you die.
