Scripture 7-7

Gen 1:6 And God said: 'Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.'

Gen 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.

Gen 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.

Wish you a good day. D.G.

II. Reading for 7-7-2008:

  (13)  And Balaam rose up in the morning, and said unto the princes of Balak: 'Get you into your land; for the LORD refuseth to give me leave to go with you.'  (14)  And the princes of Moab rose up, and they went unto Balak, and said: 'Balaam refuseth to come with us.'  (15)  And Balak sent yet again princes, more, and more honourable than they.  (16)  And they came to Balaam, and said to him: 'Thus saith Balak the son of Zippor: Let nothing, I pray thee, hinder thee from coming unto me;  (17)  for I will promote thee unto very great honour, and whatsoever thou sayest unto me I will do; come therefore, I pray thee, curse me this people.'  (18)  And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak: 'If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do any thing, small or great.  (19)  Now therefore, I pray you, tarry ye also here this night, that I may know what the LORD will speak unto me more.'  (20)  And God came unto Balaam at night, and said unto him: 'If the men are come to call thee, rise up, go with them; but only the word which I speak unto thee, that shalt thou do.'

MEDITATION: What profit does one hope to gain from cursing another person?
