RE: Numbers 13:1-33 | Spies Sent into Canaan 

    ¹ And the LORD said to Moses,

        ² “Send out for yourself men to spy out the land of Canaan,         which I am giving to the Israelites. From each of their         fathers’ tribes send one man who is a leader among them.”

    ³ So at the consent of the LORD, Moses sent them out from     the Wilderness of Paran. All the men were leaders of the     Israelites, ⁴ & these were their names:

       ●   From the tribe of Reuben,Shammua son of Zaccur;        ●  ⁵ from the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat son of Hori;        ●  ⁶ from the tribe of Judah, Caleb son of Jephunneh;        ●  ⁷ from the tribe of Issachar, Igal son of Joseph;        ●  ⁸ from the tribe of Ephraim, Hoshea son of Nun;        ●  ⁹ from the tribe of Benjamin, Palti son of Raphu;        ●  ¹⁰ from the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel son of Sodi;        ●  ¹¹ from the tribe of Manasseh [a tribe of Joseph],               Gaddi son of Susi;        ●  ¹² from the tribe of Dan, Ammiel son of Gemalli;        ●  ¹³ from the tribe of Asher, Sethur son of Michael;        ●  ¹⁴ from the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi son of Vophsi;        ●  ¹⁵ & from the tribe of Gad, Geuel son of Machi.

    ¹⁶ These were the names of the men Moses sent to spy out the     land; & Moses gave to Hoshea son of Nun the name Joshua.

    ¹⁷ When Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, he         told them, “Go up through the Negev & into the hill country.

    ¹⁸ See what the land is like & whether its people are strong or         weak, few or many. ¹⁹ Is the land where they live good or         bad?

        Are the cities where they dwell open camps or fortifications?

    ²⁰ Is the soil fertile or unproductive?         Are there trees in it or not?

        Be courageous, & bring back some of the fruit of the land.”

        [It was the season for the 1st ripe grapes.]

    ²¹ So they went up & spied out the land from the Wilderness         of Zin as far as Rehob, toward Lebo-hamath.

    ²² They went up through the Negev & came to Hebron, where         Ahiman, Sheshai, & Talmai, the descendants of Anak, dwelled.

        It had been built 7 years before Zoan in Egypt.

    ²³ When they came to the Valley of Eshcol, they cut down a         branch with a single cluster of grapes, which they         carried on a pole between 2 men.

        They also took some pomegranates & figs.

    ²⁴ Because of the cluster of grapes the Israelites cut there,         that place was called the Valley of Eshcol. 

Report of the Spies

    ²⁵ After forty days the men returned from spying out the land,     ²⁶ & they went back to Moses, Aaron, & the whole congregation         of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran at Kadesh.

        They brought back a report for the whole congregation &         showed them the fruit of the land.

    ²⁷ And they gave this account to Moses:

        “We went into the land to which you sent us, & indeed, it is         flowing with milk & honey. Here is some of its fruit!

        ²⁸ Nevertheless, the people living in the land are strong, &            the cities are large & fortified. We even saw the            descendants of Anak there.

        ²⁹ The Amalekites live in the land of the Negev; the             Hittites, Jebusites, & Amorites live in the hill country; &             the Canaanites live by the sea & along the Jordan.”

    ³⁰ Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses & said,

        “We must go up & take possession of the land, for         we can certainly conquer it!”

    ³¹ But the men who had gone up with him replied,

        “We cannot go up against the people, for they are         stronger than we are!” ³² So they gave the Israelites a         bad report about the land they had spied out:

        “The land we explored devours its inhabitants, & all         the people we saw there are great in stature.

        ³³ We even saw the Nephilim there—the descendants             of Anak that come from the Nephilim!

            We seemed like grasshoppers in our own sight, &             we must have seemed the same to them!”

Against overwhelming odds, and I really mean overwhelming... Might just take a break from trying and find my motivation later." "And go through that period again? I don't think so. Why? What's going on?" "Well I can write you a book and finish it tomorrow and I'll be adding on more here and there because I can guarantee you something else is going to go sideways soon or pretty damn soon.

Out of options

I feel myself envious over those people brave enough to seek out companionship, even when they're overwhelmed with work, college and various life things and I'm just hiding behind my cynicism and the jaded hand that my own choices and the fallout from said choices have been dealt. I envy you, Seekers of Love, and I am proud you haven't given up. So many have. So many hide to avoid it. I am proud of you.
