Numbers 18:1-32; Proverbs 15:1-33; 2 Peter 2:1-22
And, behold, the babe wept. And, she (Pharoh’s daughter) had compassion on him. Exodus 2:6
So began the story that ended in the redemption of Israel from the bondage of Egypt—the tears of a child and a woman’s tender heart. This seemingly insignificant encounter resulted in Moses, the future deliverer of Israel, being brought up in the household of the oppressor, Pharaoh, to be cared for by his own mother, and, under God, to become the deliverer of Israel from bondage. How different are God’s ways from the ways of the world. So also in
our day, we must be quick to recognize the hand of God in the day-to-day events in our lives. —Willie H. Burnett
God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm. —William Cowper
