Today’s reading: Judges 9:1-10:5

In this passage we have a sad example of how pride and the desire for power and prestige can trap and destroy a person. Flee those temptations! Seek to do and be what God has called you to.

[For more reflections on this passage see the corresponding reading in my book Cover to Cover: Through the Bible in 365 days].
