Exodus 13-15

"Be Still"  Exodus 14:1-31

1.  What do you most fear?

I fear basic social interactions.  I am afraid of saying the wrong thing and doing the wrong thing.  I am afraid of being judged by the small interactions I do have.  I also am afraid to share the gospel.  I am afraid of losing my security and money.

2.  How has your fear caused you to fight or take flight rather than be still and trust God?

I hide from others.  I stay home.

3.  Take some time to "be still" before the Lord and ask him to deliver you from your fears.

Exodus 7-9

"Let His People Go!"  Exodus 7:1-24

1.  How do you see God revealing himself to you as the one true God?

God reveals himself through the nagging feeling that this can't be just an "accident" or "random".  We are here for a purpose and God will reveal that purpose.

2.  Whom do you look on as God's enemies?

I often see atheists as enemies with God.  But the true enemy might be all of us.

3.  How can you share God's power in your life with others?

I don't know.  My story doesn't feel special but maybe some day if I get to tell it others will see God's power in my life.  I am afraid, but I will continue to pray for opportunities to share.
