If Moses can ask God, "Who am I that I should go...and bring the Israelites out..." and God replies to him "I will be with you" (Ex. 3:11-12), why would He not also be with me when He tells me to go and get Olivia?
And if Moses should have doubts about his abilities, his gifts of speech, and God tells him, "No go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say." (Ex 4:10-12), why, in our doubts, would God not also equip us and be with us and give us the words we need?
And when Moses was still concerned, God brought Aaron along side Moses to serve with him (Ex. 4:13-16), why then would God, too, not bring people alongside me?
I am not in this alone. God is with me. He created me. He called me. He equips me. And when I still feel that isn't enough, He brings others to walk with me!
Thank you, Abba Father, for loving me and answering my doubts with your assurances, and not giving up on me when I continue to ask and question Instead you pour more into my life so that I can be better to serve and love you
Thank you for being concerned about me as you were Moses and the Israelites. May I always remember this and respond with worship (Ex. 4:31).
"Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today...the LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still."
Exodus 14:13-14
