Comments:
God's people were slaves in Egypt and God had heard the cries of his people. And God met Moses in the burning bush. God called Moses to be the one to lead the people to freedom. But Moses had his excuses, didn't he?
"Who am I to do this?"
"Who will I say told me to do these things?"
"What if the people don't believe me or pay attention to me?"
"Hey, God, I'm not very good at speaking in front of people!" (I hope God didn't notice how well Moses was at speaking up and protesting what God was asking him to do!)
"God, PLEASE just send someone else!"
What excuses to do we give when we have been asked to serve God? Is it possible God wants to stretch us, to push us out of our comfort zone, to cause us to grow?
What is God calling YOU to do right now? This month? At Albright? In our community? In your spheres of influence? In this world?
