hooray! job is over and out. finally. no offense.
but over all, i get that if we dont ever lose track of God then he will reward us greatly
so in the beginning of exodus, why does the new king want to get rid of the guys and keep the girls? either i totally missed reading a part, but it didnt make any sense to me.
and now, we move onto moses.
im pretty sure the majority of us know the story of super star moses, aiight? a levite woman gives birth to a son but hides him for three months but then ends up having to ship him in a basket into the river (his sister is watching). pharaoh's daughter finds him and wants someone to take care of the baby, so the sister gets their mother who is paid to take care of him. and tra la laa, moses grows up, kills a man, runs away, saves seven daughters, and gets married to zipporah. and years after, God remembers (oh yeah! dem israeites) and has a plan...
in exodus 2:18, it says "when the girls etuned to reuel, their father...."
but in exodus 3:1, it says "one day moses was tending the flock of his father-in-law, jethro..."
so im pretty sure both verses refer to the same people, but why do they have different names?
...and Gods amazing plan with moses begins with that miraculousburning of a bush. and he sends moses to gather people out of egypt, and three suh-weeeet signs to prove to dem egyptians that God came to moses.
#1 staff turned snake turned staff, again
#2 healthy skin -> diseased skin -> healthy flesh, again
#3 water from the nile turned blood when it was poured on the dry ground
amazing.
and the last thing i want to comment on is how moses was afraid, and didnt think he could pull this stunt off
it reminds me of us during our times now and how sometimes we dont have much faith
but when we put our trust in God, he can make it possible.
