COT:

Exodus — when Moses asks God to send someone else —

“In this moment, Moses does what we often do when God calls us. We compare our natural gifts and abilities to the size of the task, to gauge whether we are capable of doing what God has called us to do. God doesn’t call us because we have, in ourselves, everything we need to accomplish what he’s calling us to do.
No, he calls weak and broken people to do huge and important things because He is able. He is with us, and he empowers us to do what he wills for us to do. Every one of God’s commands is accompanied by his empowering grace. Exodus 4 records how God demonstrates his power to fearful Moses to assure him that he will go down to Egypt and stand before Pharaoh not in his own power, but in the awesome power of the King of kings and the Lord of lords” — Paul Tripp from Everyday Gospel

COT: 2 Parts. 1 – Steady work over time produces results and I mentioned how proud I was of my Daughter for completing her PT over a few months and being back in track and cross country. 2 – The workouts we did today were things we always do PLUS a little extra and they were MUCH MUCH harder. So reminder that we can always push ourselves to be better and even a small change can make something that’s “normal” much harder and produce more results.
