Exodus 3:7-11

What does the term ‘calling’ mean? Is it an audible voice? A dream? An ecstatic experience? How can I discern God’s calling for my life? Moses lived a purposeful life after that ‘burning bush’ experience, but does that discount all the previous years? Here are some lessons that can help us understand our calling, based on Moses’ life.

People often say, “Give God your burdens.” Do you ever wonder: How do I do that? The brokenness of the world feels too heavy. And as much as you desire to shine the light of Jesus, you wonder what that looks like when you struggle to see the light yourself. This devotional looks at how we can be lights for Jesus even when our own world feels dark.

Tento plán nás pozýva vstúpiť na miesto, kde sa učíme dôverovať Bohu aj vtedy, keď nevidíme celý obraz. Na miesto, kde Boh ticho formuje naše srdcia, očisťuje naše túžby a učí nás počúvať Jeho hlas. Kde sa môžeme každý deň nanovo rozhodnúť prichádzať k Nemu. Takí, akí sme. Pozýva nás do púšte, ktorá nie je trestom, ale miestom premeny. Boh chce byť prítomný aj v tvojej neistote a otázkach, v tvojej púšti. Možno sa hneď nezmenia okolnosti tvojho života, ale postupne sa začne premieňať tvoje srdce. A práve to je miesto, kam prichádza nový život.

What is God like? It’s a big question but an important one. What we understand about God will determine how we relate to Him. The more we know about God, the better our relationship will be. God reveals who He is throughout the Bible. Every name for God tells us something about Him. Reflect on God’s character for the next 21 days and see how your love for Him grows.
