Daily Bible Reading Day 50 - Exodus 7 & 8, and Mark 16

Today's daily bible reading comes from the book of Exodus chapters 7 & 8, followed by the concluding chapter of Mark, chapter 16.   In Exodus 7 & 8, we see the beginning of what is referred to as "The Ten Plagues". Because Pharoah had hardened his own heart, God doubles down on that and sends Moses and Aaron to try to convince him to "Let my people go" so they could serve Him. Pharoah continues to refuse, so God begins the plagues starting with changing the water to blood throughout the land.    We finish the book of Mark today where Mark tells a very brief story of what took place after Jesus was buried. He rose from the dead and began visiting people to give them their final instructions. Jesus took his rightful place seated at the right hand of God in heaven.
