Exodus 3: Pour it out to the Lord
In Exodus 3 we hear the word of God saying "I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out...and I am concerned...so I have come to rescue them". (Ex 3:7/8). To me this scripture highlights the importance of pouring our hearts out to God, letting him know everything, and trusting that he will hear and respond.
Later we see an amazing act of mercy from God towards Moses, who responds to his instruction about confrongting Pharaoh with "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh?" (Ex 3:11). God could have flipped his lid here, but instead comforted Moses that he would be with him. In many ways, Moses is the most influential and close to God man in the Bible (second to Jesus), and yet we see his frailty and fear here. God is merciful!
