majestic, and full of splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saw of
him in Deuteronomy 2:7,
"The Lord your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands. He
has watched over your journey through this vast desert. These forty
years the Lord your God has been with you, and you have not lacked
anything."
As I read these words of Moses, I can't help but think of a similar
sentiment we will be reflecting on as we enter into the resurrection.
Living in this life, in a world estranged from God and suffering under
his judgment, living among people dominated by a sin nature with its
expression and inevitable consequence, life here can be daunting and
challenging. Just like a journey though a vast desert. I'm sure there
isn't a soul alive that hasn't experienced hardship, challenge and
discouragement at times. Yet, in the midst of this I am reminded that
those of us who have embraced Jesus Christ in faith will have an
opportunity to look back on our lives here from the standpoint of the
resurrection.
I am quite certain from that perspective we will acknowledge the same
thing that Moses observed. The Lord has blessed us with the work of
our hands. He watched over our journey here in this life. The Lord has
been with us and we have not lacked a thing we have had need of. I am
equally as certain that these things are observable now, if I have my
head screwed on right and am watching...
Anything of the Lord capture your heart from Scripture today? Share
your thoughts of worship with us from your Bible reading today. We'd
love to hear from you!
