At Mount Sinai

1. In the third month after the Israelites left Egypt—on the very day—they came to the Desert of Sinai.  2. After they set out from Rephidim, they entered the Desert of Sinai, and Israel camped there in the desert in front of the mountain.

3. Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain and said, “This is what you are to say to the house of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel:  4. ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself.  5. Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine,  6 you {or possession, for the whole earth is mine}. You will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.” Exodus 19:1-6

I am frequently amazed at God’s interest in us to do us good and not just good, but above and beyond that which we are able to ask or even think. Truly the love of God is greater far than any tongue can ever tell. It goes beyond the highest star and reaches even to the lowest depths. All it takes for us to be blessed beyond measure is to have respect for the word of God and the Holy Spirit and obey all that he commands in his word. Obedience is the key to receiving every good that God has to give his children.

God bless you.
