It was anger that caused Moses to miss God’s highest for his own life. When Moses struck the rock in anger (see Num. 20), it was a distortion of the glory of God. Moses misrepresented God as one who is easily angered. Amazingly, the water flowed irrespective of Moses’ anger; however, he was refused the privilege of entering the Promised Land with the people whom he had led. It is important to note that Moses did not lose his salvation—he appears later on the Mount of Transfiguration with Jesus (see Matt. 17:3), but he lost the opportunities and privileges that were part of his earthly inheritance.

We don’t have to have all the answers. We just have to stay connected to the One who does.

Sometime, in an airport, observe the difference between passengers holding confirmed tickets and those on standby. The ones with confirmed tickets read newspapers, chat with their friends or sleep. The ones on standby hang around the ticket counter and pace. The confidence factor causes the difference. If you knew that you would have to stand in judgment before the Holy God and learn your eternal destiny in fifteen minutes, what would your reaction be? Would you smoke and pace? Would you say to yourself, "I don't know what God's going to say - will it be 'Welcome home, child,' or will it be 'Depart from me; I never knew you'?

Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be, and becoming that person.

So often, we are paralyzed by the fear of missing God's will. We do not move because we are waiting for 10 confirmations. Here's the deal, most times you are going to have to step out in faith, to find out if it's God. God is big enough to redirect you if you're wrong.

It’s much better to tell the truth than to compromise the truth and have someone believe a lie. If you truly love someone, you must be truthful—even if you know it means rejection.

C S Lewis
God is the only comfort, He is also the supreme terror: the thing we most need and the thing we most want to hide from. He is our only possible ally, and we have made ourselves His enemies. Some people talk as if meeting the gaze of absolute goodness would be fun. They need to think again. They are still only playing with religion. Goodness is either the great safety or the great danger - according to the way you react to it. And we have reacted the wrong way.

One of the most common reasons we don’t hear God on a regular basis is that we don’t "turn aside" from our daily activities to hear Him. Jeremiah prophesied this: "You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart" (Jeremiah 29:13). The heart of the matter is really the matter of the heart. God wants us to value our relationship with Him by not treating Him like a cosmic bellhop or a casual friend.
