But he said, “O my Lord, please send by the hand of whomever else You may send.”

We are familiar with the burning bush, God’s command to Moses, and all of Moses’ excuses, the last being that he couldn’t speak. God’s answer was that He would send Aaron with MAdd Newoses and speak through them both. In our language now, Moses was saying, “I can’t do this thing You ask.” I once had a teacher who said there was no such word as can’t. Just I
won’t, don’t want to, will not. My reaction to doing this devotion was: I can’t write (didn’t want to). How many times has God called on us and our answer was “I can’t?”

HELP ME TO WEIGH ALL REQUESTS CAREFULLY BEFORE I SAY “I CAN’T.”GIVE ME THE STRENGTH TO ANSWER “YES”, KNOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL HELP ME. THY WILL BE DONE. HELP ME DO THY WILL. IN JESUS’ NAME. AMEN.
