“Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God.” Exodus 4:29 Moses had just spent 40 days on the top of Mount Sinai conversing and communing with the Lord.

“Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews.

“And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:21 My oldest, Ethan, graduated from High School this past weekend.

“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and his glory appears over you.
