In the section “Settlement: Seeing God,” what truth about God impressed you the most? Why?
-
All the truths about God impressed me the most. I love that we are made in his image, we are able to see things the way God wants us to but are not limited to that (we can see things as we want to as well), that is intelligence as God has made it. As a whole we are all Gods children, a family in different parts of the world but what unifies us all is God (God completes us). God could have let us all drown, never to see the light of day or night again. Instead he gives us salvation, If that isn’t a Godly love then what is ? all in all God has enough grace for everyone who was, who is, and who is yet to come.

His love for his people shown over and over, the protection and piling of the Jordan that Joshua led his people if we just believe and keep the faith God is always just.

The truth I always find amazing is that God constantly reveals himself in a variety of ways. In the Jordan River example in Joshua, we see God being very clear with direction and promising to be with us always. In addition, He makes obstacles into amazing opportunities that only can be described as God working in an amazing way. In my own life, I am able to use these amazing moments to stand in awe of what God has done and how I can share with others of His mighty works. I love to share how God is in control.

I was struck by the patience of God. God led them through the wilderness, and He brought them into a land of “land of milk and honey.” Still, the people didn’t trust him. He had to prove himself again and again. And he did! I need to remember that I serve a trustworthy Go.
Also, I found Josuha and Celeb amazing. They are true heroes of the Old Testament. -
After the tribes settled, they became independent. There was very little central government. After having traveled together those 40 years with Moses as leader, then Joshua leading them, they became more independent on their own.
