Failure or Favored

Looking at the life of Moses, you find Exodus chap 2 covers 80 yrs of his life. The remaining chapters cover the last 40yrs. If your not careful, you might miss the 40 yrs in the desert that are so important. These 40 years of obscurity, trials, questions, doubts, fears, maybes, I don't knows were a real part of Moses life. The first forty were filled with favor, blessing, opportunities, fame, fortune then its gone. If you didn't know the whole story and only knew it as you read it, it would appear that the ending wouldn't be very good. However, God doesn't make mistakes, everything He does is for a purpose, and in order to lead a million plus people out of the hands of the most powerful men on earth, it was going to take 40 yrs of training how to trust God in order to do it. Don't discount the trial or circumstances you find yourself in, God has a purpose and a plan for your life.
