      You can’t just click on the link without a little background. You need context when reading the Bible. And how does one get context? Google works. Do some homework before reading scripture and you’ll find:

      The book of Nehemiah is a rally cry to keep believing, to stay the course.

      In the reading from Nehemiah 8:1-10, we’ll hear about Ezra. He was a scribe – Ezra literally copied the Bible by hand. This shows us he was devoted to God and to Gods word. Yes? Yes.

      Now let’s read but look for who gathers to hear the word, for how long they listen(!), for what happens after…

      Promise of Joy

      Read the story, take note of the details, ask questions.

      A great resource when reading the Bible and looking for more depth is Bible Hub

      To know Gods word is to know His promises for you and me.

      Rest tonight with the assurance “… the JOY of the Lord is your strength.”

      Amen.
