April 24th: Deuteronomy 8-9, Ecclesiastes 3 and John 20

I'm amazed that God wants to provide for us. Take a look at the Deuteronomy 8 and compare it with John 20. In the John passage, Jesus let's Thomas touch his wounds. He knows the doubt. He understands the apprehension. And he helps Thomas through it. That's huge. Just as huge as appearing to Mary in her lowest moment of sorrow.

On the other hand, God watches out for the Israelites feet. Feet? Yes. He provides them with 40 years of Doc Scholls. Take a look, Deut 8. Their clothes didn't wear out and feet didn't swell. That is crazy. Food? Check. Water? Check. Happy feet? Got it.

God asked told them to schlepp through the desert and he looks out for their feet. It's awesome.
