Today we read that the tabernacle and all of the priestly garments are complete. Multiple chapters of the most specific of details from the larger pieces of gold to be shaped, down to the color of the yarn to use for a vest. The fact that all of the instructions came from God through Moses seems astounding and sometimes a little unreasonably difficult. But then I consider the creator of the universe. I cannot even comprehend the details involved in that!
When reading through the details involved in the building of the ark and the tabernacle, it's obvious that Moses could not, and did not, do everything on his own. God used his chosen people, and equipped them for his purpose. To the craftsmen, designers, and weavers God specifically gave the skills they needed to do the work as He intended.
If the Lord paid attention in such close detail back then, He surely does so now. All of the details in my life...and He is equipping me to serve in specific ways so I can further His purpose. Now if only I had the Urim and Thummim in my back pocket to consult and figure out where that leads!
