Rome wasn't built in a day.

I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the wild beasts multiply against you. 30Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and possess the land. 31^(BU) And I will set your border from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the Euphrates, for^(BV) I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. 32^(BW) You shall make no covenant with them and their gods. 33They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me; for if you serve their gods,^(BX) it will surely be a snare to you."

Up to this point God has been laying out some basic plans about the covenant. He now addresses the people. I see the modern day equivalent of God leaning sin out of our life. It will happen little by little. God cleans us and then matures us to posses the life we can now live before He does a little more. I hate me heart sometimes. It will just turn evil sometimes. God has been amazing to me the last couple of days and today I have been acting like a spoiled brat with a sense of entitlement. I can't handle a lot of blessing because I tend to treat God like a whipped lover, Do this Do that. i don't care I want to do this. I hate it. God has cleaned a lot out of my life though. Some specific sins in particular. I want Him to clean some others out and I think HE is but He is getting to the root cause and it is taking forever because God is very caring and this is a painful area and He is taking it slow. But I am still fighting the sin and it ruins my relationship with God and I hate it! Patience, is hard.
