Babs Throws the Dice – A Babs and Harold Conversation
“Aaron is to offer the bull for his own sin offering to make atonement for himself and his household. Then he is to take the two goats and present them before the Lord at the entrance to the tent of meeting. He is to cast lots for the two goats—one lot for the Lord and the other for the scapegoat. Aaron shall bring the goat whose lot falls to the Lord and sacrifice it for a sin offering. But the…

Does Hollywood Care?
When the people saw him, they praised their god, saying,“Our god has delivered our enemy    into our hands,the one who laid waste our land    and multiplied our slain.”While they were in high spirits, they shouted, “Bring out Samson to entertain us.” So they called Samson out of the prison, and he performed for them.

Vespers – Proverbs 13:1-8
A wise son heeds his father’s instruction,    but a mocker does not respond to rebukes.From the fruit of their lips people enjoy good things,    but the unfaithful have an appetite for violence.Those who guard their lips preserve their lives,    but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.A sluggard’s appetite is never filled,    but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied.The righteous…

Are Doctors that Deal with the Brain Crazy?
The Lord detests dishonest scales,    but accurate weights find favor with him.When pride comes, then comes disgrace,    but with humility comes wisdom.The integrity of the upright guides them,    but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath,    but righteousness delivers from death.The righteousness of the blameless makes their paths…

Knowing Yourself by Knowing God
But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell. Matthew 5:22 But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I…

Annoying Advertisements
Then Abraham rose from beside his dead wife and spoke to the Hittites. He said, “I am a foreigner and stranger among you. Sell me some property for a burial site here so I can bury my dead.”The Hittites replied to Abraham, “Sir, listen to us. You are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb for burying your dead.”Then Abraham rose…

Good and Bad Comparisons
All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. Isaiah 64:6 When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you and have taken possession of it and settled in it, and you say, “Let us set a king over us like all the nations around us,” be sure to appoint over you a king…

The Faith – Dignity of Life
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27 “Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made mankind. Genesis 9:6 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;    your works are wonderful,    I know that full well.My frame was not hidden from…

An Alcoholic Surgeon
When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. Genesis 9:21 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus…

Vespers – Proverbs 12:22-28
The Lord detests lying lips,    but he delights in people who are trustworthy.The prudent keep their knowledge to themselves,    but a fool’s heart blurts out folly.Diligent hands will rule,    but laziness ends in forced labor.Anxiety weighs down the heart,    but a kind word cheers it up.The righteous choose their friends carefully,    but the way of the wicked leads them astray.The lazy do not…

Spring Break – An Easter and Jemima Adventure
We are Jemima and Easter Yeggs.  Lieutenant Yeggs wants his son to write these reports to keep in touch when we are out having our adventures, and Rev C.S.L., my Dad, doesn’t mind an update either. In my last letter, I talked about how Mary and Joseph fell asleep in each other’s arms on our couch.  They have continued that type of dating.  Monday through Thursday, they meet in our apartment. …

Woe, Woe, Woe, Feelings
and if feelings of jealousy come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure—or if he is jealous and suspects her even though she is not impure— Numbers 5:14 or when feelings of jealousy come over a man because he suspects his wife. The priest is to have her stand before the Lord and is to apply this entire law to her. Numbers 5:30 Fools give full vent to their rage, but the…
