Waiting. I don’t wait well. Today we find Moses sitting by a well in Midian.

Read Exodus 2:16-25 and Acts 7:29-30a and then work through the questions.

• What trouble did Moses witness in verses 16 & 17?
•  What did Moses do?
•  Does this remind you of the incident in vs. 11 & 12?
•  What did the priest of Midian do for Moses?
•  What do we assume was Moses job for the next 40 years?
•  Why would this have been good training for his next position?
•  Meanwhile what has been happening in Egypt? (vs. 23)
•  List the verbs associated with God in vs. 24 & 25.
• How does that bring you comfort?
•  These few verses cover a 40 year span. He will be almost 80 when we see him next.
•  How can I learn to wait well? What can I be doing while I wait?

Just a reminder that our timeline is not God’s timeline. He is patient towards us.

I have pulled out an old hymn book. I’m reminded how rich the words are. I need to do more singing. I might post one or two next week. Time will tell. Let me know if you have a favorite.

Until next time.
