1. A new chapter starts today. Genesis can be divided into the following sections:
 - Prehistorical time, ch.1-11, including creation, fall, flood, Babel
 - Patriarch time, ch.12-36, including Abraham, Isaac, Jacob
 - 12 tribes of Israel, ch. 37-50, mainly Joseph
Stories about Joseph are amazing. I can't wait to read it.

Today there are two things that made me think:
A. Judah & Tamar. Things they did seemed very odd to me. Mike put it in the correct way -- this made me look deeply into my own heart. Before I question their behavior, maybe I should question myself. There are so many things that I did were 10 times worse.

B. Being honest (or at most a little bit proud) almost put Joseph to death.

Tough material to read.

2. Jesus proclaimed his true identity and predicted his resurrection after 3-day death. He is the son of God!

3.  "You have made known to me the path of life;
       you will fill me with joy in your presence,
       with eternal pleasures at your right hand." -- yes, please strengthen me with your word.

4. "Do not"s, as important as "Do"s, are something that I don't follow everyday.
