LET MY PEOPLE GO! EXODUS

Fergus, Laura and Dante opened our day with beautiful prayers.  Fergus also says to God that he hopes He is having a good day.  I tell the class that Laura had a brush with fame - she met Kate Bracks, winner of MasterChef 2011 @ St Matthews Church on the Corso, on Monday evening!

Here is is a pic

Our Lesson: Moses hears God calling him from a burning bush! God sends him to Pharao to demand this: Let God's people go!

Pharao refuses and God sends 9 plagues, but Pharao STILL refuses to let God's people go.  God sends the Angel of Death to the firstborn son of every family, only those who paint their doors with the blood of a lamb, will be passed over.  This points us to what will happen for us in the future, even though all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, Jesus died in our place, He is our sacrificial lamb, therefore death will not stop at our door, but instead, we inherit eternal life.

Wow.  Next week we see how even after all God does for his people, they still keep doubting.  Does it not sound familiar?  Absolutely!  We do exactly the same.  But God still persists and keeps rounding up his lost sheep, he loves us, no matter what.  Thank you God!
