Finishing well. (Read: Deut. 33-34)

Finishing well.  Though Moses did have his struggles, he was a man of great humility and faith.  His costly mistake meant he forfeited the privilege of entering the Promised Land.  Nevertheless, God enabled him to see it from the top of Mount Nebo.  What an amazing finish!  You climb the mountain and see the reality of your lifelong vision and struggle.  As he dies, the epitaph is striking: “No prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face…” (34:10).  If you were to die today, what would be said about how you have spent your time on earth?  Clearly the most important feature of a person’s life is the quality of their relationship with God.  Far more important than your achievements, assets or titles is the depth of relationship you enjoy with Jesus Christ.  Your faith, hope and love is the greatest legacy you pass on to those you love.  People remember how you spent your life and how you finish.  Give thought to how you are spending this brief time on earth…other people are counting on you.
