The best place places to camp

32“But even after all he did, you refused to trust the Lord your God, 33who goes before you looking for the best places to camp, guiding you with a pillar of fire by night and a pillar of cloud by day.

Today marks the beginning of a new journey--a return to Thailand and a move to a new place.

While we know the city we're hoping to move to, there are a lot of unknowns.  And there is a lot to do to get ready for that move--flying to Thailand is the easy part.

As I was reading in Deuteronomy this morning, though, I was encouraged.  When Israel was wandering through the desert for 40 years, "the Lord their God went before them, looking for the best places to camp."

And this is our prayer as we go forward, that the Lord our God will go before us, looking for the best places to camp.  And that we will have the sense to follow whatever pillar of cloud or fire He sets before us.
