We are in the middle of another great VBS. This year, we are doing Crocodile Dock. The theme for last night came from Exodus 3:12. When one of the leaders would say, “God is with us,” the kids were supposed to yell FEAR NOT! I think we as adults can learn a lot from this, too. If God is with us, we truly have nothing to fear. Moses tried to come up with excuse after excuse and then finally tried to say, “Lord, send someone else.” It is common for us to look at the mistakes of those in the Bible and be judgmental, but how often do we do the same thing? We often don’t step out and try anything new or risky or uncomfortable because “what if….. you fill in the blank.” If we are going to teach our kids that God is with us and we have nothing to fear, we better be ready to live it out ourselves.
Now, I’m not saying jump out and do something stupid… I’m saying, we need to listen to God, and when He calls be ready to answer “Yes, Lord!”
God is teaching me a lot from the book of Exodus right now. As time allows, I’ll try to share some of those things.
May God bless you as you trust in Him!
