This kind of lesson-learning is life-giving to me...it's freeing and redeeming! I so love learning the intricacies of Hebrew Scripture! And Ruth has been a "faved character" for years! (Her story was our "primary" wedding scripture, and the basis for the bulletin cover we selected!) :D Cool...more insights to take with me into my Immersion experience! --KKarla MGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09840050000753549956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19368112.post-1169450733394660432007-01-21T23:25:00.000-08:002007-01-21T23:25:00.000-08:00Touching the hand of God! I like this Leah! Yes i...Touching the hand of God! I like this Leah! Yes indeed, when we read the Bible, we are touching, connecting with God. This reminded me of a story I've heard variations of before, but with a slightly different twist this morning at church... <BR/><BR/>A boy expressed his desire to be baptized. This body of believers practiced baptism by immersion in a nearby pond. The pastor led the boy out and explained on the way that he'd dunk the boy and then ask him to say a few words about this faith step. Well, the pastor dunked the boy and upon pulling him up asked "did you see Jesus," to which the boy replied "no sir." So the pastor dunked him again, this time holding him down a bit longer, and again asked "did you see Jesus" upon his re-emergence from the water. Again, the boy breathlessly said "no sir." A third time the pastor dunked the boy down hard, and held him down for some time. Upon pulling the struggling boy up, he asked "did you see Jesus?" The boy responded "no sir, are you sure this is where he went down? If you want me to look some more, I'll need my scuba suit." How many times do we touch the hand of God...or more aptly get touched by Him and not even know it, not even know that's what (more correctly, WHO!) we're looking for? Love these thoughts my friend! --KarlaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19368112.post-1163452908698967992006-11-13T13:21:00.000-08:002006-11-13T13:21:00.000-08:00Hi +Leah,Your curriculum is ambitious!
