Today's reading: Exodus 5-8

"Now you will see what I will do..." Exodus 6:1 NLT

In this passage God is speaking to Moses.

A worried, fretful, question-filled Moses.

The same Moses who was called by God, for God's purposes, in a special only-God-could-do-it way.

And he is complaining to God that he isn't seeing the progress he thought he should be seeing.

I have a good percentage of Moses in me.

I question God.

I remind Him of the situation.

I provided page after page of ideas for Him to consider.

I suggest to Him ways that His glory might most effectively be revealed.

I sit on the edge of my seat waiting for Him to say, Go ahead and take over Malinda, you've got this, girlfriend!

I think my timing is more appropriate than His in most cases.

And I hear at times God speaking to me the same words He spoke to Moses,

Now, in My time and in My way, you will see what I will do!
