Donkeys. Not war horses, not silver, just donkeys, and even they were counted: "The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred;…Donkeys. Not war horses, not silver, just donkeys, and even they were counted: "The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of which Yahweh's tribute was sixty-one." Someone tallied every plodding animal so God's share wouldn't be a guess. Your ordinary, burden carrying days belong in that count too. What part of them have you been quietly rounding off?
Praise is fitting for the upright." Fitting, as in it suits you, like clothing cut to your shape. And look…Praise is fitting for the upright." Fitting, as in it suits you, like clothing cut to your shape. And look who is being handed it: the psalm right before ends with a forgiven man shouting for joy. The righteous here are not the flawless, they are the pardoned. If guilt has been lifted off you, joy is not an extra. It is what you were made to wear.

Let the news of another's blessing move me toward gratitude instead of comparison. Teach me to celebrate what you are doing in lives that are not my own.

The bravest man in Israel, dropping his armor to run faster. Amos lists every advantage, speed, strength, weapons, and crosses them all out. Whatever you have been quietly counting on to save you, name it. Then ask if it could outrun God.

You fight the battles too big for us, and You send us home carrying more than we brought. Every victory I've known is really Yours, and I'm glad of it.
