In the first 10 verses of chapter two we read about the story of a small baby. He is a male and his name is Moses. In the natural we have a small baby in a reed boat floating along the river. This small craft is drifting with the current.

What if this was a representation of a lost soul as they amble through life. Carried along only by the whim of their desires and emotions. Suppose the reeds growing along the river bank are like a wall that separates a sinner from the things of God.

Miriam is there. She is watching the craft as it glides along on the current. Can she be likened to a Christian, that sits idly by whilst sinners go to their doom. Who will warn them of their fate?

While she continues to observe, Pharaoh’s daughter comes out and takes charge of the baby. A babe that should really be adopted into God’s family. Not some pagan outfit. Unless it suits the purposes of God.

Whether we like it or not each of us is on a journey. What sets us apart is we are travelling to different addresses. Depending on our attitudes and beliefs is where we will end up. On their journey, the children of Israel were led by Moses who in turn got his orders from God. Who gives you yours?
