Well put.

However,

As with Peter at the mount of Transifuration . . .

the flesh is always eager to build tabernacles and settle down and concretize, fossilize, manage, control, mangle, shape and manipulate events, experiences, symbols, rituals.

God will have none of it.

He wants . . .

DYNAMIC, ONGOING, DIALOGUE . . .

RELATIONSHIP.

Thank you so much for your encouragements!

So very true. That is a Spiritual Truth of this passage:

And there shalt thou build an altar unto the LORD thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up [any] iron [tool] upon them. Thou shalt build the altar of the LORD thy God of whole stones: and thou shalt offer burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD thy God: And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and rejoice before the LORD thy God. And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly. - Deut 27:5-8
