Lesson 58 of the Heartbeat of God. I'm your Bible study friend Holly and welcome to the heart dive podcast.

Thank you for joining us today. We are still walking through the Torah in the book of numbers. We are in chapters 8, 9, and 10.

And I am on the way to church and right after that, Alpharetta, Georgia. So hello, Alpharetta going up there for a baseball tournament. Summer is very full of baseball tournaments. And so I'm trying to get this in and I'll be editing while I'm there. So if you see me in the area, if you ever see us out in the area, I'd love to say hello, get a picture with you,

and just hear how God's Word has transformed your life. So today's Bible study will be a little

bit shorter and concise because it's three chapters and I have to get all this done before my

little's wake up. Let's see if we can do that today. Thank you for joining us.

And as always, you can email us at hello at heartdive.org and our website, heartdive.org,

in our shop, which is heartdive shop.com. And yes, we are working on that. But if you've noticed,

we are really intentionally pausing this summer as just like the Levites, just like the

Israelites. Sometimes you need to rest and just let the cloud or the pillar of cloud hover

over you, cover over you as you try to walk in obedience and understanding and discernment. And they don't always know what's

going to happen around the bend. You just have to sit and rest on God and watch his cloud

hover over you. And when it moves, you move. And right now, I feel like the Lord is kind of hovering

over Kanoi and I as we discern what the future is, really go to him in prayer.

And we can't do that if we're in that hustle mentality. So I don't know about you, but I'd love

to quiet the noise before we dive into God's word because it's going to be a full day. And if

you're anything like me, maybe this prayer will also help you rest.

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for another opportunity to be together in fellowship and in community with the people who gather here.

I'm so thankful that you have given me this opportunity, but also allow this ministry to be the vehicle, the catalyst, so that other

people can also be appointed vessels for your ministry, for your mission, for your purpose.

May we all be consecrated wherever we are, wherever the ministry field is.

But first, quiet the noise in our hearts and in our minds so that we can hear your voice, even when we don't understand.
