Do it God's way.

This morning in my devotion, I was reading Numbers 20:8-13.  Here we have Moses choosing to do the commands of God his way instead of God's.  A simple thing but in Moses' case he was barred from going into the promise land.  Some would say the punishment of God in this case was a bit severe but I believe was fair.  Moses had great light and he knew better.  It has been said, that with great power comes great responsibility.  (Spiderman One).  No I am not quoting or following comic book philosophy.  But it is important to remember that when you have more truth you are responsible to that truth.  Moses knew better.  That is the case for many of us.  We know better and yet we seem to try to help God out.  Most times with disastrious results.  So my exhortation is do this the bible way.  Follow the prescribed ways of God as outlined in the pages of the Bible.  They are tried and true methods of life.  You do not have to be the Frank Sinatra of your world and do it your way.  Follow God's way and live in His will.
