Be the difference in the world, not letting the world make you different.

Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you. Exodus 34:12 God was preparing the Israelites for the land they would enter. As he does, he reminds them that there are people already living in this land, peopleContinue reading “Be the difference in the world, not letting the world make you different.”

Finding Rest when the rest of the World wants us to be Busy.

It will be a sign between me and the Israelites forever, for in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed. Exodus 31:17 Moses was a busy man. Leading the Israelites through the wilderness, teaching them the ways of the Lord, being anContinue reading “Finding Rest when the rest of the World wants us to be Busy.”

Something about 40

To the Israelites the glory of the Lord looked like a consuming fire on top of the mountain. Then Moses entered the cloud as he went on up the mountain. And he stayed on the mountain 40 days and 40 nights. Exodus 24:17-18 Moses and the Israelites are finally at a place in their travelsContinue reading “Something about 40”

Sowing seeds of compassion

If you take your neighbors cloak as a pledge, return it by sunset, because that cloak is the only covering your neighbor has. What else can I sleep in? When they cry out to me, I will hear, for I am compassionate. Exodus 22:26-27 God hears all of our concerns because he is compassionate. AtContinue reading “Sowing seeds of compassion”

We ALONE can’t solve all the worlds problems

The next day Moses took his seat to serve as judge for the people, and they stood around him from morning till evening. When his father-in-law saw all Moses was doing for the people, he said, “what is this you are doing for the people? Why do you alone sit as judge, while all theseContinue reading “We ALONE can’t solve all the worlds problems”

Sometimes we need help to hold up our hands.

As long as Moses held up his hand, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he lowered his hands, the Amalekites were winning. When Moses’ hands grew tired, they took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Aaron and Hur held his hands up — one on one side, one onContinue reading “Sometimes we need help to hold up our hands.”

Finding freedom

In days to come, when your son ask you, “what does this mean?” Say to him, “with a mighty hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.“ Exodus 13:14 At some point in each of our lives we will find ourselves in the land of slavery. Seven years ofContinue reading “Finding freedom”

God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called.

Moses said to the Lord, “pardon your servant Lord. I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue.” The Lord said to him, “who gave human beings their mouth? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight orContinue reading “God doesn’t call the equipped, He equips the called.”
