S – The Lord said to him, “Who placed a mouth on humans? Who makes a person mute or deaf, seeing or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? 12 Now go! I will help you speak and I will teach you what to say.” Moses said, “Please, Lord, send someone else.” Then the Lord’s anger burned against Moses…
Exodus 4:11–14 CSB
O – After a series of excuses, the Lord becomes angry at Moses. He burns not at his inability but his unavailability and attitude.
A – The Lord is big enough to handle our inadequacy. The big challenge to God is that he created man with free will so he can choose to obey or disobey God. Man can say “no” or “yes.” When our attitude is focused on “me” instead of God, we close off the attitude of availability to God’s prompting.
R – Lord, I surrender my will to yours today. I am grateful for all the gifts and talents you have blessed me with today. I choose to align my attitude and obedience with your Word and promptings to be available to your will. Give me the courage and wisdom to accomplish all that you have for me today.
