Cut off your hair and cast it away; raise a lamentation on the bare heights, for YHWH has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
Jeremiah 7:29
The Bible never says that it's a sin to grow your hair long or to shave it all off, in fact there are times when a person was required to do both. However, in the ancient Hebrew culture, a shaved head was a symbol of humility and shame. It wasn't an honorable thing. See the Bible's treatment of lepers, war brides, priests, and Nazirites.
Most likely everyone will have those things in life that need to be done, but you don’t really want to do them. Genesis 22:3, “So Abraham got up early the next morning, saddled his donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had designated.” Abraham was probably apprehensive about taking Isaac as an offering, but he didn’t hesitate. He got up early to do what the Creator asked him to do. That is more than an example of faith, it is also an example for us to do the things we should without procrastinating.
Thought for Today: Wednesday April 23
Nothing will help us grow spiritually more than spending time alone with YHVH every day, reading His Word and talking to Him. I know that our lives are busy, but time alone with YHVH is essential to our spiritual welfare. Think of it this way: when you are hungry, you eat. You will not miss a meal, so, why would you miss your spiritual meals by neglecting your time with YHVH? It will only make you spiritually weak. Remember this: either sin will keep you from YHVH’s Word OR YHVH’s Word will keep you from sin. Choose wisely.
And just like that America becomes 22% better overnight.
