Wednesday, February 19th | Exodus 2

Passage:
11 One day, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his people and looked on their burdens, and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his people. 12 He looked this way and that, and seeing no one, he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 13 When he went out the next day, behold, two Hebrews were struggling together. And he said to the man in the wrong, “Why do you strike your companion?” 14 He answered, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you mean to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses was afraid, and thought, “Surely the thing is known.” 15 When Pharaoh heard of it, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from Pharaoh and stayed in the land of Midian.

23 During those many days the king of Egypt died, and the people of Israel groaned because of their slavery and cried out for help. Their cry for rescue from slavery came up to God. 24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 God saw the people of Israel—and God knew.

(Exodus 2:11-15, 23-25 ESV)

Lyrics:
I'm not perfect
Even at my best I don't deserve Him
When everything's a mess under the surface
He never makes me feel ashamed
When I'm hurting
He handles every question in my searching
Even when I wonder if he's working
He takes all of the fear away
So when you think that you're stuck
In the place you're standing
He sees
Everything you're gonna be
He's healing every lie you believed
He sees you
He sees you
And He knows
Your future so he's pulling you close
He is your defender
I know
He sees you he sees you
Different voices
Have tried to label you just by your choices
But I am here to tell you that you're chosen
His love's calling out your name
So if you think that you're stuck
In the place you're standing
He sees
Everything you're gonna be
He's healing every lie you believed
He sees you
He sees you
And He knows
Your future so he's pulling you close
He is your defender
I know
He sees you he sees you
Bring your burdens
Bring your shame
Lay it down
At his feet
You are a child of the living God
Of the living God
Bring your worries
And fear of failing
Lay it down
No more waiting
You are a child of the living God
He sees
Everything you're gonna be
He's healing every lie you believed
He sees you
He sees you
And He knows
Your future so he's pulling you close
He is your defender
I know
He sees you He sees you

Prayer:
Father, what we know not, teach us; what we have not, give us; what we are not, make us; for the sake of your Son our Savior. Amen.
