Texts:
Exodus 1 and 2
Psalm 11 and 12

Exodus continues the story of Genesis by telling the story of Jacob's descendants in Egypt.
Two awesome women of the Bible--Shiphrah and Puah--decide to follow God rather than Pharaoh and they don't kill the Hebrew baby boys.
But Pharaoh still finds ways to kill the babies. So Moses mother makes a hard decision. If she keeps her son, he'll die. If she sends him down the river, perhaps someone will rescue him. What thing (or person) have you loved that you had to let go of, trusting God with the outcome?
