Kum Ba Yah


Leviticus 27-Numbers 2

It’s easy to get lost in Numbers and just skip over it.  Even its name, Numbers, can strike boredom in the hearts of artists, but there is plenty of meaning, meditation and metaphor if you go into it wanting that. 

This morning we learn that all the children are “camped” around the Tabernacle.  We love camping.   Two great truths in camping are all good camps have a fire and all good campers camp around it.  Fire in the wilderness provides three basic needs: light, warmth and safety.  Are you and yours camped around God?  He provides the same thing.  Come on in from the dark and cold and lay your bag beside the Fire.  It’s the only safe place to be in the wilderness.
