REPORTS
Today's reading: Deuteronomy 1-2

"They picked some of its fruit and brought it back to us. And they reported that the land the Lord our God had given us was indeed a good land." Deuteronomy 1:25 NLT

Maybe you need to hear this today...

Maybe you're wondering if it's all worth it...

If it's worth the struggle...

If it's really going to be worth the sacrifice...

The pain...

The hours of prayer...

The breaking of old habits and choosing of new ones...

Just like the two scouts who searched out the Promised Land, saints of God tell us over and over again--It's a good land!

It's worth our time in the valleys to enjoy the mountaintop experiences with God!

It's worth our time in the storm-tossed ships to savor the presence of the Lord in our midst!

It's worth the time spent on our knees to know the feeling of being held tightly to His chest!

It's worth doing it one more day, even if you don't see the results, because He is at work!

It's worth believing what He says over what our enemy whispers!

It's worth the tears!

Just ask someone who has traveled with God for any length of time if it's worth it, I believe they will give you a good report. One that boosts your morale. One that encourages you to continue on. One that reminds you that the 'fruit' is amazing and indeed it's a good land!
