“This command I entrust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you fight the good fight,” 1 Timothy 1:18 NASBS
“For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,” Romans 9:3 NASBS
When four year old Ivy wakes up in the morning, her very first thought is, “Mama!” She opens her eyes and hits the trail looking for me. I hear her little feet running through the house, and if it’s early, like it is most days, she runs to my side of the bed, flings her blankie over the top of me, and climbs in. When I get out of bed, she immediately jumps down and follows me telling me that I’m her best friend. I’ve been the center of all my kids’ universes at different times on this journey of motherhood for the past 21 years. It’s always a precious time.
Moses stands before us in Scripture as a man worthy of deep reflection. The Word of God declares that by faith he refused to be identified as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing instead to suffer affliction with the people of God rather than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin. He esteemed the reproach of Christ as greater riches than all the treasures of Egypt. Here was a man who saw beyond the present world and laid hold of eternal realities.
