The Death of Moses

From a sermon I heard yesterday.

Moses died without ever going into Canaan. However, he was being called "the Servant of the Lord", he was being buried by the Lord (usually done by a relative, plus the dead body is considered unclean), and there were no other prophets like him who could talk to God face-to-face.

What do you want in your life? Your wishes granted by God or a close relationship with Him?

Moses had a close relationship with God, but in the end, he could not do the one thing that he had wanted (maybe most??).

We would say "a close relationship with God" if we were given the choice. However, if we look into our real life, we'll know that we want the things God can give us more.

When are we going to learn? When am I going to learn??
