These words are part of “Moses’ Song” as the leader speaks of
God’s loving desire for His people to be nourished by God’s ways and
protection. Water was scarce in the
desert wilderness; morning dew was often all for which a plant could hope. In comparing God’s Word to gentle rain, Moses
spoke the very promise of life to those for whom life seemed to hang on finding
the next oasis.
Gentle rain has
enveloped our days for the last week or so; it is relentless. While it is soft-falling, gentle enough to
nourish even the tenderest new plant, given enough time even gently-falling
drops could wear-away the Rock of Gibraltar!
Does that tell you something about God?
God’s ways are
often times gentle and seemingly in the background – just like a gentle mist,
or dew. But He is relentless and His way
will eventually be like the streams that split solid walls of rock and form Grand
Canyons.
God’s Word will
accomplish God’s will. His Word can
either nourish you with strength that comes like the morning dew, or it can
sweep you away in judgment if you stand against it.
Today
Embrace His
will and be strengthened!
