Those in leadership must practice what they preach. HOw could Moses lead God’s covenant people (the sign of which was circumcision) if his own son had not received the sign?

It's sounds good. I haven't written in quite awhile. I constantly have ideas, but then there seems to be too many thoughts to write them all out. This will have to be a discipline I grow in, especially sense I am really ministered to by learning to articulate what God is teaching me. Things are both hard and good at the same time.

The distractions become different over time as we mature, but I believe that they will always be there. We can even, as you say, be distracted by His gifts and not see past them to His loving hand. Have you ever read <i>Perelandra</i> by C.S. Lewis? It's one of my favorite books by Lewis. It explores the topic of obedience out of love for the One who commands...
