Easy to go so fast, that we get ahead of ourselves and forget that we’re not entirely capable, sufficient and wonderful on our own
As adults, most of us realize we are not, and yet, it’s still our daily pursuit.
Exodus 3:11-15
Moses asks, “Who am I that I should go?” and God does not say, “You are the biggest, baddest, coolest, most eloquent, rock star on the planet.” Nor does God say, “Could you work on becoming that?”
God does say, “I will go with you…tell them I AM sent you.”
Moses knows he’s being sent to do something he cannot do on his own. God says, “Go anyway. I will be with you. And I AM.”
Numbers 20:6-12
Moses dies short of the Promised Land b/c he was doing well when he realized he was incapable apart from God. As soon as he decided he could do it on his own, it fell apart.
Francis Chan, “are you living in such a way that you’d be fine if Jesus didn’t show up?”
Be reading the Gospel of John and start digging into Jesus' life and all that He says and shows He is.
