Route 66: Day 34-36; Leviticus 8-15

Long lists of how to deal with daily life. Warning labels on the food, the heartbreak of psoriasis and toxic mold. Who knew? And in case you were wondering whether or not to eat that grasshopper... All joking aside, these were things that concerned the people of Israel and their God.  This massive population existed in very close quarters and an epidemic could wipe them out in a flash.  These guidelines  would help stop the spread of infectious disease and  literally save their lives. Again, more evidence that God is present in our 'everyday'. Our well-being is important to him. He's not some distant god that watches from afar to see how we make out.  He is with us and he is for us. And all I have to say about that is, "Hallelujah!"
