What my soul really needs…what my leap-day showed me…
done by my Sneak Peek Friday friend, Sadee Schilling @apicturebooklife For the past week I have been thinking about a place in the Bible that is so powerful, yet sad at the same time…Exodus 20:18-21, where Jehovah God is meeting in the wilderness with Israel for the first time – 18All the people perceived the thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood at a distance. 19Then they said to Moses, “Speak to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak to us, or we will die.” 20Moses said to…
