Understanding Christianity

Failure is the crucible of God’s grace for shaping our character. Moses fails miserably as a "deliverer" motivated by pride in killing the Egyptian and flees as a fugitive to Midian. God transforms him into a humble man who waits the next 40 years in preparation to be Israel's effective leader on God's timetable. Moses failed as a deliverer motivated by pride. Jesus succeeded as as deliver motivated by humility. Jesus is the greater deliverer and when we fail miserably, we can find Him as a perfect Savior who freely forgives us because of His death on the cross. www.seancole.net
