I was encouraged and challenged by the verbs in Exodus 3:7-22. God tells Moses..."I have seen...I have heard...I am concerned...I have come down to rescue them...I am sending you...I will be with you...You will not go empty handed...
When Moses asks God to please send someone else in 4:13, God is angry that Moses refuses to trust, but he continues to assure Moses that Aaron is on the way. Even though Moses sees Aaron as someone who can do the assignment better than he can, God reminds Moses that he will help both of them speak and teach them what to do. Our natural gifts/skills are nothing without God's intervention. Despite how inadequate we feel, God calls and God provides. I find that reminder really exciting.
