The Priestly Blessing: Numbers 6

22 The Lord said to Moses, 23 “Tell Aaron and his sons, ‘This is how you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:

24 

“‘“The Lord bless you

and keep you;

25 

the Lord make his face shine on you

and be gracious to you;

26 

the Lord turn his face toward you

and give you peace.”’

27 “So they will put my name on the Israelites, and I will bless them.”

Text from a friend on New Years Day. 

Praying the Lord’s blessings run over your cup in this new year!

After my friend sent that short text to me I did a quiet time meditating on the verses from Numbers.  The thought I ended with was this. 

Who will I share that blessing of hope and peace to? There are people in our lives who need to hear words of encouragement. If God puts a name on your heart, drop what you are doing to text or call them.

MOLESKIN:
Pray for Mermaid’s MIL who lost a family member.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I recently cleaned out my closets and donated many items.  It was the inspiration to wear some of the “GEMS” I rediscovered when I was cleaning to the workout this morning.  We talked about the importance of donating some of the things that we are not using to others who could put them to use.  In addition, I asked that we consider to be vulnerable and share our struggles as well as our experiences.  Others in the group may find value in the struggles and experiences we share.  We build a community and bonds when we share these experiences, and as men we sometimes hoard our feelings and emotions, and this is a safe space to share them.
