What an appropriate chapter for a day when so many people are making resolutions!
Yeah so appropriate. Ladies make sure you have your resolutions approved by your father/husband!

Challeging to keep, only with His daily help.
I summarised all 1,189 chapters of the Bible on Twitter - one tweet per chapter, one chapter per day for over three years.
These are the summaries of the book of Numbers.
They are written to help you understand and remember what's going on in the chapter, but they're no substitute for reading the Bible for yourself.
