Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah, as on the day at Massah in the wilderness, when your fathers put me to the test and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work. For forty years I loathed that generation and said, "They are a people who go astray in their heart, and they have not known my ways." Therefore I swore in my wrath, "They shall not enter my rest."

As the old praise chorus goes, “Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary” Send those messengers that You have appointed to admonish and guide me into all truth. Give me the willingness, the desire, the compulsion to obey You above all others. Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary for You through the power of Your grace, Your mercy and Your love.
