The most important message I picked up from today’s readings overall is our own stubbornness causes us to suffer.

My primary takeaway from each of the passages was this:

  • Exodus 9,10  – Like Pharoah, we tend to forget our promises and oaths when things are going well. It is oftentimes our own stubbornness that causes us to suffer.
  • Mark 2 – God is not dependent on, nor subject to, man’s traditions. Neither is he static. God is living and ever-changing, and we are expected to keep up.
  • Psalms 30 – God answers our prayers and deserves our gratitude and praise.
  • Proverbs 30 – The universe is full of mysteries we cannot understand, but God is master of them all.

That’s what I got out of it. What did you get out of the readings today?
