Hezekiah - Part One

In the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign. He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Abijah daughter of Zechariah. He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David ha--

"Hannah!"

"Yes, mom?"

"Could you come down here and give me a hand?" Hannah closed her Bible, slid off the bed, and gracefully danced down the stairs. Her mother was in the kitchen.

"What is it you need me to do?" She asked her mother.

"Would you mind helping me with dinner? I've got a great meal planned but it's going to take two chefs," her mom said playfully. Hannah hesitated. She had wanted to watch some t.v. and draw. 

He did what was right in the eyes of the LORD...Honor your father and mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you. Right. "...Sure. What're we cooking?"

"Stuffed bell peppers..." Hannah wrinkled her nose. "Don't worry, I haven't told you the rest...my green bean recipe you love, and homemade dinner rolls."

"Okay, I can handle that!"

"Great, let's get started."
