The next plague to be brought upon Pharoah and the people of Egypt is the plague of frogs. I don't know about anybody else but I am not a fan of lizards, snakes and reptiles. Frogs don't place well with me either. When I see the little lizards when I am down in FL, it doesn't bother me too much because of the their size and their timidity. Still, I know that some species of frogs are dangerous given that they also have poisons which I am also still not to fond of. Still in the case of the frogs, God brought them out the Nile and in turn, the socerers were also able to replicate the deed. Pharoah pleaded with Moses to remove this plague which he did and told him that he would let his people go but reneged upon his word even after Moses complied. The frogs died and were swept into an area where the stench was awesome. With the plague gone, Pharoah's heart grew hardened and he went back on his word. The period of time between the first and second plague was 7 days.
How often is my heart hardened even when God has done great things? I should be more generous, extend my heart and hand more but still I don't. I pray for a more patient, giving and caring heart... Prayers for my friend Deb and her daughter who were in a car crash yesterday in Franklin, TN. Glad to hear that they were ok even though the car wasn't . Also continued prayers for the family that lost their home the other day and for Donna who is still hurting. Am happy that I was able to rearrange my schedule to see GG now that he will be home for CNY and have dinner with the family.
Praise for today: Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me! Ps: 66: 20
