Exodus10 Moses said to the LORD, “O Lord, I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue.”
11 The LORD said to him, “Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD ? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say.”But Moses said, “O Lord, please send someone else to do it.”
14 Then the LORD’s anger burned against Moses and he said, “What about your brother, Aaron the Levite? I know he can speak well. He is already on his way to meet you, and his heart will be glad when he sees you. 15 You shall speak to him and put words in his mouth; I will help both of you speak and will teach you what to do. 16 He will speak to the people for you, and it will be as if he were your mouth and as if you were God to him. 17 But take this staff in your hand so you can perform miraculous signs with it.” NIV
How many times have you felt like you needed to speak to someone about God, but then you didn’t because you were afraid of saying the wrong thing or looking stupid?
God pretty clearly tells us that he gave us our mouths, he will help us and teach us. Through bible study and prayer the right words come.
Moses felt insignificant and unworthy, but with God’s help he rescued God’s chosen people from Egyption oppression. So, why wouldn’t he use little ol’ me to tell a few people about him?
I prayerfully ask that next time you feel the nudge to talk about Him to someone, say a quick prayer and you will be amazed at how the right words and the right actions come to mind. He might even send you a helper like Aaron.
Thanks to all who helped with VBS. LIVES WERE SAVED !!!
We will be planning another event for children in August, it will take a few weekends and we will need volunteers. We are going to plan a race of cars that we make ourselves. We would like to have church volunteers help build the cars and then the big race will be towards the end of the month. This will only work out if we have volunteers for the event and to help kids build cars, as well as inviting children from the community.
Please email Amanda Gonzalez if you will be available for this outreach. I will be out of town for first 3 weeks of July, but I will be checking email regularily. Also, start praying now that we may lead many people to God through this event.
Thank you for all you do!!!!!
