Daily D – Exodus 31:1-6

by David Bowman | Jan 27, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Exodus 31:1-6 The Lord also spoke to Moses: “Look, I have appointed by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. I have filled him with God’s Spirit, with wisdom, understanding, and ability in every craft to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze, to cut gemstones for mounting, and to carve wood for work in every craft. I have also selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, to be with him. I have put wisdom in the heart of every skilled artisan in order to make all that I have commanded you:“ (CSB)

An old song says, “Everybody’s got a gift to give.” This is true for even you.

God gives wisdom for work that honors him and blesses others.

The wisdom for special kinds of work beautifies. It draws our attention away from the bits and pieces toward the deeper reality and higher truths of God’s goodness and grace.

God’s gifts build a better world. Form and function, design and decoration yield deep satisfaction and settled enjoyment.

It’s Saturday. This is a good day to ponder how we can use our God-given gifts to display God’s goodness through the work of our hands, the thoughts of our minds, and the way we treat everyone we meet.

I will use the gifts God has given me to beautify the world.

—

Our Father, use what you have placed in me to express beauty, wonder, and awe that draws hearts and minds to your gracious goodness. Amen.

Hebrews 4:15, 16 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin. Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.

Daily D – Philemon 15, 16

Philemon 15, 16 For perhaps this is why he was separated from you for a brief time, so that you might get him back permanently, no longer as a slave, but more than a slave — as a dearly loved brother. He is especially so to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
