What I took away from that and is something that has been lurking in my head since was that maybe this the life I am going live. Moses wanted to go into the promised land and he is more that physically able to get there but God said that it is the end of the road for him and he cannot go any further than Mount Nebo. God lets him see the promised land from there and that is going to be it. It's a so close but yet so far kind of thing. I'm sure that Moses would have been gutted that he couldn't go into the promise land together with the rest of the Israelites because I am sure that he wanted it. But God had other plans and he obediently followed.
I wonder whether that is me now. I am allowed to be able to see from afar but can go no further. The thought of that is already gutting me but maybe this is the point where I can finally say "I get it, this is it. Your will over mine".
Something to ponder over the next couple of years...
