Genesis 9
After many years of reading this chapter something jumped out at me this morning. Long before the eating/food restrictions were given to Moses, God says to Noah, "Everything that lives and moves will be food for you" (verse 3a). God gives all here but later restricts the food list. In the end (See Acts chapter 10) all foods are declared available again. Reminder to self: Sometimes God gives restrictions for my benefit and later removes them when He knows I can handle the freedom without getting in to trouble. Our God is a wise God!

Yes! I like that thought! Well, it's not so fun when the restriction is on, but if I can just remember it is for my good (to benefit me and make my life better) It will make it easier to accept!
