18 July - 1 Chronicles 26:12-27:34; Romans 4:13-5:5; Psalm 14; Proverbs 19:17

It has been a long day- long not in term of working time, but the amount of activities that was packed within today. Though I remembered the priorities like God first, family second, exercise third, forex research fourth, the rest are the sand, but I seemed to be busy. Yes I have committed the day to the Lord and the first thing I step into my company is to print the daily bible reading material - but once the momentum start - I only to break for lunch. Well, I pray the routine will slow down - it should be.

The OT continue to dwell on David counting his men- his gatekeepers his army division . Frankly I am bored reading for the last 3 days on them. Farnkly, I don't remember much of the people name - except Joab. I wonder what happen to these people after David's death? Do these people - the priest, the levites, the musician, the gatekeepers contiune to serve the temple? Will they get bored? Well, maybe not - I guess they are assigned by God and David.

The NT again continue to profound on Abraham faith and righteousness. Frankly, I disagree on this verse "19 He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb. ". I remembered that because of Sarah disbelieved, she gave Abraham her maid servant. Abraham (is also one kind) took the maid and produce Ismael. The Quran stated that it is Ismael that Abraham tried to sacrifice before God stop it. So who is right (of course the bible as 2Tim 3:16 - the scritures are breathed out by God). The Quran of course would never agree to this. The Chinese saying - Lao wang sell melon - he will brag about his melon. Again, I am bored by the last few days of Paul argument. But I guess he has to - remember - Romans was addressed to the Jews in Rome. Paul had to bring out history. As modern christian, we have not follow the Jewess tradition.

Well nevertheless - Jesus I love you and I pray that it is you that I want to grow more intimate with. Forgive me of my sins, I really need you and need a big breakthrough!
