The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart, O God,
You will not despise." - Psalm 51:17
Do you feel as though everyone
else seems to have it all together except you? Are you struggling with a
life-crisis caused by a personal character flaw, indiscretion, or misstep? Let
me assure you that you're not alone.
Consider the mess Moses got himself
into. At age 39, Moses was at the apex of society, of status, of wealth, of
educational pedigree, as the adopted son of the most prominent man in the world
- Pharaoh. He was at the pinnacle of all society. And then he murdered an
Egyptian he saw beating a slave. He buried the body and thought he had gotten
away with it. But Moses was exposed the next day and had to flee for his life in
the wilderness. Moses went from high society to desert nomad in just one day.
And you're talking about a drastic change in everything about his life.
Moses probably felt like his life was over and thought there was no
chance for him ever again doing anything of significance. But, even though what
Moses did was evil and wrong, God did not abandon him. God took Moses' evil and
turned it into a means for good by preparing him for the challenge of his life -
calling on Pharaoh to release all the Hebrew slaves.
Perhaps you can
relate to what Moses went through. No matter how bad your fall or how serious
your character flaw or how much difficulty you face in life - don't give up.
Turn to the Lord with trust and let God do something powerful in your life. Let
God develop all the Godly attributes that He wants you to have in your life.
Just like He did for Moses, God still has great plans for your life!
Still Hungry? Isaiah 4:4, Hebrews 9:19, Exodus 12:2
