On the first day of the year, the prince is to bring the umblemished young bull for sacrifice and whose blood will cleanse the temple. This also happen on the 7th day of the year to cleanse for unintentional sins by the people. The balance of the chapter speaks of the Passover feast, again marked by eating unleaven bread but the prince will provide the bull(s) and the rams for the sacrifices. He is also responsible for providing for the sin and grain offerings during the Feast.
Leaders are supposed to lead - that's what they do, by vision and example. I guess that as the head of my house I try to do the same. Sometimes I am successful and other times I fail. Still I try and do the best I can. I feel that whatever the age and circumstance I need to "put my two cents" in. What I still have a tough time determining is when to let go and let God. Still learning that aspect of fatherhood. I am proud of my sons - what they have done and accomplished. They have followed their passion and while financial still somewhat dependent upon Irene and myself have been able to carve a niche for themselves. Richness and security take many forms and my prayers for them is that they find both in their own way.
Praise for today: He is my Rock and my Salvation!
