The God Who Goes Before His People

Remember being a kid and having to go into those creepy places, maybe a damp basement or shadow filled room. You knew you had to go there, but you were so scared. Just going down the stairs or the hall was traumatic. If only someone would walk in front of you to make the journey feel safe and secure. The Exodus story ends with the people preparing to leave Sinai. They are going to journey toward the Land of Promise. It could be a scary journey but they won't go alone. The God who delivered them will go before them, that is as long as they trust and obey.
