We begin Reflecting on Psalm 19, and we don't get any further than the Truth-packed first verse! As always, I hope it's a blessing.

Continuing Genesis 13, we see Lot's foolish and selfish choice, and how God blessed Abram! I don't know where the "underwater" effect came from, and I hope it's not distracting. Blessings, listeners!
