30 min of hill running (fast pace)

Pushups:
10-1 pushup/plank circuit
(10 pushups, 10 sec plank hold.....)

Daily Reading:
Numbers 17-20
1.) Lessons:
- Israel was blind and ignorant to their destructive patterns (17:5-10)
- Present to the Lord the holiest and best portion of everything given to us (18:29)
- Israel blamed Moses for their troubles.
- Israel had conflict with the Edomites.

2.) Applications:
- Watch and pay attention to my behavioral patterns. Are they edifying to others and glorifying to God?
- Give the Lord the greatest portion of everything. Every blessing is a gift from the Lord. Give thanks and remember that things on this earth are temporary.
- Do I blame others for my own problems, troubles or discomfort? There are always going to be consequences for my actions. Accept them, SUFFER IN SILENCE, and move forward.
- Just like the Israelites in relation to the Edomites, there will come times in life where conflict is unavoidable. How will I act in those situations? Will I honor and bring glory to God? Or will I react in anger, bitterness and rage?
