About Me

I am a retired VA employee who lives in Texas. I consider the characters of the Bible "family" as much as any I know or have known on earth. To be one of the Lord's beloved is the greatest thing I know. What good company!

Bibledoorajar: Perfect Design

     I have recently been shopping on the internet for timers for lawn sprinklers. I want the ones that are seen as having the best design that will give the most quality for the price. When I read the reviews on the various products it seems that inevitably someone will report a problem with the design that have caused them grief. I am still looking, still hoping to find the best.
     For the Israelite, the robes of the High Priest with the Urim and Thumin inside were perfectly designed so that Israel could experience peace through the counsels of God. Whatever situation they were in, the counsels of God were there to see that their peace was uninterrupted. Even an enemy attack would end in the Israelites having peace. Whatever the issue, God could insure that peace would attend. There on the breast of the High Priest were the mysterious counsels of God. He was with His people. The Bible tells of some times when the Urim and the Thumin were misused by those in authority and their actions warranted disasterous results. But, when approached in the proper manner, God ensured peaceful endings.
     John leaned on the breast of Jesus. Perhaps he not only heard the heartbeat of a man, but perhaps he found the peace of the counsels of God. Surely God wanted Jesus to be known as the Prince of Peace. Peace be with you was one of the first things He told His disciples. It was His peace that He left with them. The peace that passes all understanding; GOD LOVES YOU! The power to overcome lies within His glory. There, He  sits on His throne robed in both royalty and priesthood. God rests about you because He rests in His Son. You can rest in God because His Son rests in Him.  It is the ultimate perfect design! Here some churches say, "Peace to You" and hear the response, "And to You". For believers, it will ever be. Your proper approach? Love and worship Him!
