May You Live A Life As Vigorous As Moses

Deuteronomy 34


120 years old and his sight was unimpaired! And his vigor was unabated! (NRSV)

I'm not quite 1/2 that old and cannot say the same. I have to wait for awhile after I wake up in the mornings to even read the Bible. Everything is blurry for at least the first 30 minutes to an hour. Moses indeed was blessed. Yes, there were a couple of instances that he did not honor the LORD as he should have, but if we could only attempt to be so faithful. Moses led the people out of bondage to the promised land as the LORD directed him. If we could but listen and obey half as well. With the blessings Moses endured much for the LORD and his people. It all causes me to think about stewardship of Good's gifts. Moses received the gift of good sight and vigor because he needed these gifts to lead the people to the promised land. Now it is time for Joshua to use his gifts to possess the land which God has given the.m
