That Book Meme

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4-7 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet!
I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest
(unless it's too troublesome to reach and is really heavy. Then go back to step 1).
6. Tag five people

I got tagged by kudagirl, but I'm not tagging anyone else, as I think you have all already done it!!

Honestly, the book that was on my pc-desk wasThe Daily Messgae" - which is The Bible, in a modern translation, divided into 366 sections.

Page 123 = Exodus 14

The Egyptians said "Run from Israel!  God is fighting on their side and against Egypt!"

God said to Moses, "Stretch  out your hand over the sea, and the waters will come back over the Egyptians, over their chariots, over their horsemen."

Moses stretched his hand out over the sea:  As day broke and the Egyptians were running, the sea returned to it's place as before.  God dumped the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.
