The One Year Bible - Day 39

I just want to mention one part of Exodus 28 and that is the section in verse 17 that talks about insetting gemstones to represent the 12 tribes of Israel. Each of these stones is different and we are reminded that God considers us all differently. He does not need to generalise but is able to personalise, able to relate to each one of us where we are and despite who we are. There is that great verse in Revelation 2:17 that says to the people who overcome, they will be given a new name known only to God and them and we won't all be called Jane or John! Isn't God great?
