Occasionally it’s helpful to pause, consider where I am in the journey of life, look forward and consider what the best ‘next steps’ might be.
Nehemiah can help us with that today!
Reputation, character, integrity, legacy are all important words which describe the sum total of our lives. So join me again today in Nehemiah’s account of his remarkable experience in the miraculous, 52 day rebuild of the Jerusalem city wall. You’ll remember Nehemiah’s sabbatical from his job in the palace of king Artaxerxes in Susa, the Persian Kingdom, was for a limited time. Now that the wall was completed, Nehemiah had been given authority, by the king, to put in place appropriate and reliable leadership for Jerusalem so it would be an orderly, God honoring, law abiding city after Nehemiah left and returned to Susa. I find it very fascinating what Nehemiah did as soon as the wall project was completed. Look with me at chapter 7.
