welcome back , today we pick up with the letter e . now here is the thing with the letter e I have only one physical book that begins with this letter, which i will get to.
So i will beging with books from the Bible.
The first book is Ecclesiastes, both Ezra and Solomon have been credited with writing this book from The Old Testament; although in pre NIV versions the author was only known as the Teacher.
Ecclesiastes is however a book that comes across as one that can be very depressing because of the constant repetition that "This too is meaningless. Yet if you really look at what ivs being written this takes on an entirely different meaning.
From a spiritual perspective we are talking how things of the world ,(Acts of the flesh as Paul wrote in Galatians 5 verse 17-21), then the book takes on an entirely different perspective and is well worth reading.
Next is a contemporary book that is titled "Everyday is a Friday" By Joel Osteen. Now this is actually a book with both a prayer and a prompt to refocus our mind. This is as the title says Daily Readings from the actual book that Joel Osteen wrote.
The readings are looking at how we live, the decisions we make and the consequences that may come ; but instead of us being left dangling on a ledge we are rescued by a prayer that ties into the chapter then comes the prompt to change how we look at things. The prompts say to us, hey try looking at today this way make a change in your thinking just to see how this can change your entire day.
Next up is Exodus the book of Moses and the liberation of the Jewish people from the yoke of domination of the Egyptian people.
Exodus is a book that is long in the tooth but it is very inspiring because shows that with patience and trust in God we can accomplish anything. But we must remember that we must put our hope in Gods hands because we can not accomplish the goal on our own.
