Do you know who I feel like right now? I feel like Moses.
The main jist behind it is, he's a shy guy. I'm a shy guy. He didn't feel "capable". I don't feel "capable".
So the only part that's left is the trust part. The part where I trust in God and let Him lead me to be able to greater things. Greater things that I ever thought I would do.
But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?"
12 And God said, "I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain."
13 Moses said to God, "Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' Then what shall I tell them?"
God said to Moses, "I am who I am . This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.' "
Moses answered, "What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, 'The LORD did not appear to you'?"
Response: Exodus 4:2-8 (God shows Moses miraculous signs to give to israelites to prove that the LORD had appeared to him)
Moses said to the LORD, "O 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 man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD ? Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."
But Moses said, "O Lord, please send someone else to do it."
I've just outlined all Moses' doubts (in torquoise...or baby blue?)...and they all seem to be my doubts, also.
Although i don't do things as significant as Moses, but i do feel this familiarity when I read this...
Prayer Request: Please pray for me again, that I gain strength...just like Moses did...and became a GREAT leader.
