Still after all that the Lord had done and was recorded for them through Deborah and Barak, the people were still back to their wicked ways. The new oppressors are the Midianites and the Amalekites. The rule went on for 7 years before the narrative picks up and they were basically being drained of their resources and identity as a nation. Through a prophet, God did tell them what they did wrong and that He saw their disobediance and allowed this to happen.
Back to the grind for a day down here. Heading home for a specialist appointment tomorrow and working out of P-ton on Friday. Glad that I will see Irene later when I get back and interested to hear what she had to say about the whole trip. Also happy to see GG even if it is for one night and briefly.
Praise for today: The Lord upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down. Psalm 145:14
