Chap.4: “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
to the temple of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways,
so that we may walk in his paths.”
Chap 5: With what shall I come before the LORD
and bow down before the exalted God?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?
7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams,
with ten thousand rivers of olive oil?
Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly[a] with your God.
Thanks for sharing the journey!

The Sugarloaf Mountain hike was a wonderful way to start that weekend, as Edi put it. There are so many wonderful and beautiful creations that we don’t always get to experience. Through these hikes, we are able to admire and enjoy nature and learn from our readings. The following picture is Barb at the top of the mountain.
A topic that I enjoyed reading that week was how important it is to recognize and respect the differences that we all have. The book had a wonderful example of how relationships with our family, friends and God are all very different and unique. The author gave the analogy of his relationship with his three children. Even though his relationship with each child is different, they all have to follow the same house rules. He explained how this analogy can be applied to our own relationship with God and how we follow his teachings.
