God's plan of reconciliation
I love the words from this woman (which were likely Joan's words) but are ultimately from God. We, as sinners, are sentenced to death. We should be banished rom God for eternity. Yet God devised a plan…

How Sad for Moses
How sad for Moses that he would not get to enter the Promised Land. Moses was one of the most faithful people to God in that time. He did not grumble as much as the other people. Yet for perhaps one time…

Blessings and Curses
I think these verses answer "why does God let bad things happen to good people?". The fact is, He claimed this curse upon us if we are disobedient to His laws. And since we all fall short of God's standards,…

Trust and Honor
I guess I am a little confused as to what Moses and Aaron did or did not do. Was the Lord implying that Moses and Aaron took credit for the water pouring out of the rock, or saying that they did not credit…

A loving God, but also an angry God
There are some people who say "God is love" and that God would never do anything "mean" to people. And in the true sense of these words, I agree. But there can be no mistake from scripture that our God…

Moses is Bold?
"Now show me your glory" is a rather bold statement in my opinion. But God did not seem to mind. In fact, God appeared to be pleased by Moses' boldness.

God's Timing
God's timing usually seems slow to us. Yet He has a reason and a plan for His timing. In this case, the Israelites would have loved to take over the lands of the "ites" very quickly. But God said He would…

Joshua
We know that Joshua is important later in history. But God named him fit here in this verse. Did Moses wonder, "why Joshua?". Wasn't he just a boy then? And yet we know that Joshua will be the one to…

Moses Confused
From Moses' perspective, things were not going the way he thought they would. Is it because He didn't follow God's original plan, but instead needed Aaron to speak on his behalf? Or is this just the way…

Words to Speak
If I believe God wants me to speak, I should be bold enough to open my mouth; having faith that He will give me the words to speak.

Reuben
Ok, my previous note was wrong. It might still be Benjamin they send back later, but it was Reuben who did not want the brothers to kill Joseph. However he didn't know the brothers sold Joseph as a slave.

Joseph and Benjamin
I recognize these names from the chapter later in Genesis. Joseph is sold as a slave, and I recall Benjamin did not want it to happen. I believe Benjamin is also the son left behind while the others retrieve…

Protest?
Did Isaac scream? Did he protest or struggle? Did the servants hear a commotion in the distance? Or did Isaac willingly submit to being bound and placed on a pile of wood?

What a vision!
The angel tells her that her son is going to grow up to be a huge jerk. I wouldn't be happy with that kind of message from God. Yet Hagar considers herself blessed for having the experience.
