Today Moses has to chisel out 2 new stone tablets to replace the ones he smashed when he saw the golden calf. Chiselling out stone is not easy and these tablets would have been extremely heavy to carry UP the mountain to God. At the end of the day, God gets His way because He is sovereign but when we interfere with his plans, we end up working much harder to get to the same place. This is a challenge to listen to God and act on his timings and not ours. Moses shouldn't have smashed the first tablets, his anger had caused him to disrespect God's laws. Perhaps sometimes we do that too, we disrespect things God has promised us or guided us to do and in the end we spoil the best route for our life, making us backtrack and climb back to where we should be already.
I think people have this idea that hard work is good and easy work is bad but if we truly rest in God's timings, we can achieve so much more in so much less time!
