I wondered, what if Moses had considered the Red Sea as his sign to surrender to Pharaoh and his armies? How did he discern whether to keep going or turn back? Indeed, if he had listened to the voice of the masses, he would have considered it wiser to stop now…. It was an obvious decision, wasn’t it?

I wonder if I could have supported Moses in that moment or if I would have given him wise counsel to see the signs, know when to stay NO Moses.

The how we were called there, and how we were called home is not the story for today, although it is one I do love to tell.

Today’s story is about the going back.
