Marching To The Promised Land
If you’re reading along with me, today is Day 18 of 90, in our cover to cover challenge for reading the Bible in just 90 days. The verses we read today were Deuteronomy 10-17.
Today was truly a repetition of what they had been commanded. It’s basically repetition. What’s interesting is that Jesus used the book of Deuteronomy to reference to, so it’s important for us today as well.

I am seeing the beginning of some amazing things the past couple weeks. I can’t believe that we’re only half way through the month and that I’m already seeing so many wonderful things growing up. I’ve prayed for so long for some of the things that I’m now seeing all around me and in my life and though I should never be surprised when the Lord does His amazing work, I sometimes I am. Not because I’m surprised He was able to do it, I’ve known all along He could, but because I’m surprised He did do that just for me. I shouldn’t be surprised about that either, nobody is more important than me, even if I sometimes allow myself to think that. We are all equally important and I believe in ways we’ll never understand.
Today I wasn’t able to go the little family center I’m so accustomed to being at this time of year especially on this day, The March For Life, and I think of how many women I’ve come in contact with over the years, how many lives I’ve been touched by, just by having the opportunity to hold someones hand or pray with them across that little clinic or on the other side of the sidewalk we hope they won’t walk down and I think . . . God is so good. He’s given us the strength to face these trials and times we’re facing, He’s given us everything we need to stand up and be courageous, to take that bold stand for what we believe, and to lovingly point others to Him.
So today I ask that when you pray you would pray for all the unborn children who might be facing an uncertain fate tonight, that their parents would be impressed upon, and led by, a spirit of love. Whether you’re the nation of Israel marching towards Canaan or the pro-lifers of present day marching towards law change for the right-to-life, we’re all marching towards the promised land. The promise of life, abundantly so . . .
Grace and Peace
“Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another.” — Romans 12:9-16
