Deuteronomy 10

While reading this afternoon I of course came across the servant's heart. However this chapter was also very much about God's promise to us. This chapter made it very clear that God always fulfills His promises when we remain faithful. This is another example of relationship. God wants to bless us and give us all the desires of our hearts, but he also wants us to love Him. One verse I particularly liked was verse 16. Moses says "..be stiff-necked no longer" I just think its so funny that a problem they had way back then is still a problem we have now. God wants us to stop being stubborn. Not because He hates us, not because He wants to control us, but because He wants to bless us. If we're always in control we will never be blessed; we can't bless ourselves. God has so many promises and wonderful plans for our lives that we may never see unless stop being "stiff-necked".
