Hanging on His Words
When I picked up my Bible today, my eyes fell on the following passage:
“Yet they [the chief priest, the teachers of the law and the leaders of the people] couldn’t find any way to do it [kill Jesus] because all the people hung on his words.” -- Luke 19:48
The statement that “all the people hung on his words” hit me. It seemed like a modern day idiom. I doubted that this is what it literally said. So, I asked my husband, Tom, “Is this an exact translation of the phrase ‘hung on his words’”? He looked it up and said, “Yes it is.”
The One with the Waiting
I hate waiting.I mean, I HATE it.
I hate waiting the two minutes for my coffee to brew and get into my cup.
I hate waiting in lines at the grocery store.
I hate waiting in traffic.
I hate waiting for things I want.
I hate waiting for a baby.
