Exodus 34:1 The Lord said to Moses, “Chisel out two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on them the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.
I know that one of my quirks is that I get hung up on things that happened, or should have happened, or could have happened but didn’t. I have a hard time dealing only with what is and letting the rest go.
Exodus 34:2 Be ready in the morning, and then come up on Mount Sinai. Present yourself to me there on top of the mountain.
I know it is something that God wants me to deal with, and it’s something that I don’t love about myself either. If I’m so busy looking back, I can’t focus on what’s right in front of me. I miss the blessings in the here and now. I hold on to pain that’s been dealt with. He doesn’t want that for me. I don’t want that for myself.
Exodus 34:3 No one is to come with you or be seen anywhere on the mountain; not even the flocks and herds may graze in front of the mountain.”
Precious Savior, Thank You for the reminder that letting go is something that I still need to work on. Help me to learn the lessons, forgive or ask forgiveness, and move forward so that I don’t get stuck in the past. Help me, Jesus. Amen.
Exodus 34:4 So Moses chiseled out two stone tablets like the first ones and went up Mount Sinai early in the morning, as the Lord had commanded him; and he carried the two stone tablets in his hands.
Have a blessed day.
