What a sight that must have been! A phase of the commands that was given to Moses was made reality. The destruction of Ai and its king was history and over. Possession of the Promised land was a reality. I could imagine the altar of uncut stones and Joshua carving the 10 Commandments on a stone in front of the entire nation.
I think the way Ch 8 ends is very fitting - the reading of the blessings and the curses that would come if true obediance is adhered to. I know that how we and especially myself need to be reminded that "we reap what we sow".
I want to acknowledge the rough season that Joe and Erika Rodgers are going through with the recent addition of Hannah in their lives. The child has never seen the outside of a hospital yet she fights and fights and fights. My prayers are with them all...
