Repost from @ourdailybread • Sticks, Bricks, and God⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The Bible in One Year: Jeremiah 22–23; Titus 1⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Today's Bible Reading: Job 1:18–22⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised. Job 1:21⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ After praying about what God was calling them to do in the next phase of their lives, Mark and Nina determined that moving to the urban core of the city was what they needed to do. They purchased a vacant house and renovation was well underway—then came the storm. Mark wrote in a text message to me: “We had a surprise this morning. The tornado that came through Jefferson City, took out our renovation—down to sticks and bricks. God is up to something.”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Uncontrollable storms are not the only things that surprise us and create confusion in our lives. Not losing sight of God in the midst of misfortune, however, is one of the keys of survival.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The weather catastrophe in Job’s life that resulted in his loss of property and the death of his children (Job 1:19) was but one of the shocking surprises he faced. Prior to that, three messengers had come bearing bad news (vv. 13–17).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ On any given day, we can go from feasting to mourning, from celebrating life to processing death, or some other life challenge. Our lives can swiftly be reduced to “sticks and bricks”—financially, relationally, physically, emotionally, spiritually. But God is mightier than any storm. Surviving life’s trials requires faith that’s focused on Him—faith that enables us to say with Job and others, “May the name of the LORD be praised” (v. 21).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ —ARTHUR JACKSON⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ What has helped to clear your vision when you’ve lost sight of God? What can you learn from Job that will help you when the storms of life come?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Father, forgive me for the times I lose sight of You in the midst of life’s difficulties. Help me to see You with fresh eyes.⁣⁣ ⁣ #sticks #bricks #sticksandbricks #ourdailybread #dailydevotional #followgod #jesusisking #dailydevotionals #verseoftheday #dailybibleverse #thegospel #usethisgospel #bible #dailyinspiration #dailydevotion #dailyscripture #devotiontime #devotionoftheday #christianwalk #godis #thelordgivesandthelordtakesaway https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBYngxn7Az/?igshid=9mjrl7gm6vy2

A Day To Remember "Sticks & Bricks"

[nuhsawn]

Building up

(NIV) Genesis 11.3 - They said to each other, "Come let's make bricks and bake them thoroughly."  They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar.

They are in the process of building what seems to be the first monumental thing of this new world.  A building for them to all be able to dwell in seems to be what would come first after settling into a new region.  What they use this building for could be telling of how their society was run and what was important to them at the time.  Maybe this was the first large scale attempt at using man made bricks rather than stone.  The use of this building could set up an everlasting image on this society.
