If our first reaction to the Ten Commandments is a definite ho-hum, maybe we owe it to ourselves to stop and ponder them again.

“No one can do this as well as I can.” We actually believe this, but today’s Bible story reminds us it may not be true.

Moses was afraid to look at God, and sometimes we are unwilling to face the tasks God has laid at our feet. But we can take strength from the same presence God promised Moses at the burning bush.
