Thoughts about the month of June
But Moses said to the people, “Don't be afraid.
The Egyptians chased after them with all the Pharaoh's horses and chariots, with his cavalry and his army, and caught up with them as they were camped at the sea. It was with Pi-Hahirot before Baal-Zefon.
As the pharaoh drew near, the Israelites looked up and suddenly saw the Egyptians approaching from behind. The Israelites were terrified and cried out to the Lord.
They said to Moses, “Were there no graves in Egypt that you would bring us to die in the desert? What did you do to us to get us out of Egypt?
But Moses said to the people, “Don't be afraid.
Stop and watch as the Lord saves you today! Exodus 14:9-11 and 13a
Back then, the Israelites were fleeing and the persecutors were already very close, so you could complain to the refugee leader, and then this: “Don't be afraid! ”
That was a statement! How often are we in similar situations — hopeless, alone, with special demands on our necks, and then this: “Don't be afraid — the Lord stands by your side and fights for you! ”
This Bible verse should accompany us in particular this month. Don't be afraid when planning your vacation, the Texas operations, the Jungschar camp or other projects!
Don't be afraid, someone always goes with you and is with you and with you! I hope that we will experience that again and again this month.
