Packing Day

How many times have I moved? I don't know. I've lost count. I do know I have never had a moving company pack and move me before. Today the packers will come and pack everything I own. They say they can do it in one day. As I look around, I see a big job in front of me. I was reminded last night by my pastor how Israel would get up in the middle of the night and move sometimes. They never knew when they were moving. Sometimes they would stay in one place for only one day, sometimes longer. Sometimes they would travel for one day before stopping to set up camp, sometimes they would travel longer. But they traveled like this for 40 years to get to the promised land. I guess I am in good company. They were God's chosen people.
