Good morning, everyone!
Today I read Daniel 10-12.
In today's reading, Daniel has a vision that terrifies him. He sees "a man dressed in linen, whose waist was girded with a belt of pure gold of Uphaz. His body also was like beryl, his face had the appearance of lightning, his eyes were like flaming torches, his arms and feet like the gleam of polished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a tumult" (Daniel 10:5-6).
An angel of God.
And wow! What a sight! Can you even imagine that? I can't even picture it. How amazing and terrifying that must have been for Daniel.
Daniel's vision this time is about the "latter days" and about wars and kingdoms conquering other kingdoms. Even Daniel has questions about this vision, such as "when will this happen," but the angel doesn't answer all of Daniel's questions. He sends him on his way, with instructions that not everything he showed Daniel should be revealed at that time.
I still don't completely understand everything I read today, but I feel like I learned anyway.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Hosea 1-7.
