March 8: Deuteronomy 10-12; Psalm 56; Luke 14

"Circumcise, then, the foreskin of your heart, and do not be stubborn any longer." (Deut. 10:16)
What rough edges within us need to be cut off?  What hard pieces should be circumcised, removed, so that when people see us---when our actions are made known or our words are heard----all may know we are God's beloved?

In Deuteronomy, Moses reminds the Hebrews--and us---who we are and whose we are.  As we turn and re-turn to the LORD, we need to recognize our hard edges and allow them to die in order for us to be the new creation God designed us to be.  Do not be stubborn any longer.
