1 Chronicles 13-14; Proverbs 15:22-33

Tuesday's Bible Reading: 1 Chronicles 13-14; Proverbs 15:22-33

The thirty-fifth day of summer. Five months until Christmas.

The port of ancient Tyre:



Today, Israeli bombs are hitting the seaside city of Tyre. But long ago when Hiram was king of Tyre, he sent messengers, cedar logs, stonemasons, and carpenters to build a palace for Israel's King David.
1 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, along with cedar logs, stonemasons and carpenters to build a palace for him. 2 And David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and that his kingdom had been highly exalted for the sake of his people Israel. —1 Chronicles 1-2
Lord, how long will it be until the peoples of the world are building cities rather than bombing them? We know that shalom is your will for the world, and we long for the day when you will accomplish this mighty work in the hearts and minds of all your people. Please hear our cries for permanent peace.
