Moses -Who am I that I should do this thing?
God – I will be with you. They will listen to you. Exodus 3:11-12, 18
Moses – They won’t believe me.
God – I will show them. Exodus 4:1-9
Moses – I can’t speak well enough.
God- I made you and formed your mouth. Exodus 4:10-12
Moses – Send someone else I am not worthy.
God – Your brother will accompany you and be your mouth. I will help both of you speak and teach you what to do. Exodus 4:13
Moses is often listed among those who have self-esteem issues in the Bible, but I hadn’t stopped to read carefully until recently. Look at God’s responses to Moses’s excuses:
I am not enough. – God is; God is with you.
They won’t let me. – God will handle them.
I’m really not enough. – God made you and formed you by his hand.
I can’t. – God will go with you and give you companions. You will do this.
