1 Chr 5:1-10

Reuben was one who could have had it all but because he had sex with one of his father's wives, he was denied his listing in the genealogical records as the firstborn as his right. So the rights went to Joseph and Judah was the strongest. From Judah came the lineage of Christ. It seems that conflict and struggles were always prevalent during those times as protection and expansion of borders and assets were constant. The descendants of Reuben were no different as they waged war against the Hagrites (from Hagar) and defeat them and occupied their lands.

Good day yesterday, highlighted by the virtual concert by a good friend, Scott Krippayne. Not a bad way to spend a few bucks and in the privacy of your own home. Nice to see the family following suit.

Praise for today: Your ways, O God, are holy, What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples. Ps 77: 13-14
