Fr. Mike points out how blessing something sets it apart for the purposes of God, and it is no longer meant for ordinary uses. So when we are filled with the spirit of God, our daily task becomes extraordinary, because it is consecrated to God. Today's readings are Exodus 30-31, Leviticus 22, and Psalm 115.

If you have the Bible reading plan in front of you, downloaded or whatever, maybe it's on your computer, maybe it's printed out, you can see that we only have six more days left in this period, this period of Egypt and the Exodus. We only have six more days left to get through Leviticus.
And so if Leviticus has ever given you a problem in the past, or you've gotten hung up in this section of Exodus, where there's a lot of details when it comes to the tabernacle, a lot of details when it comes to the priest's garments or when it comes to the laver.
You are in for a treat because in six days you will have completed, maybe for the first time ever, the entire book of Leviticus, and maybe for the first time ever, the entire book of Exodus. So speaking of, today we are reading two chapters from Exodus, Exodus chapter 30 and chapter 31, also Leviticus chapter 22, and then our psalm today is Psalm 115.
So again, Exodus 30 and 31, Leviticus 22, and Psalm 115. The book of Exodus, chapter 30. The altar of incense. You shall make an altar to burn incense upon. Of acacia wood shall you make it. A cubit shall be its length, a cubit its breadth. It shall be square, and two cubits shall be its height.
Its horns shall be of one piece with it, and you shall overlay it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about, and its horns, and you shall make for it a molding of gold round about.
