(Yes - I changed it to 40+. It's looking doubtful that I'll make it in 40. I'm going to try not to hate myself for that :-p )

2 Kings - 2 Chronicles )

I'm glad you're doing these again. I was missing them!

" I mean - it sounds like Solomon is kind of ordering God around in a way that our moder sensibilities gasp at his audacity - but he does it because he believes it. He really believes that God promised all of those things - that they are his to claim. He believes that God honors his promises - and therefore all he is really doing is reminding himself of God's promises."

Thanks for that. I am not so bold with God. As a matter of fact, I find myself, more often that not, waiting and cowering, wondering what the next big challenge will be that I will have to conquer, or what consequences of my own selfishness I will have to suffer... I should hold on to his promises more.
