Wilderness Gifts
Gift's of God's Preperation
Moses was exiled into the wilderness where God prepared him to shepherd the Hebrew people out of slavery. Note: David was also prepared in the wilderness as he tended sheep and protected them from bears and lions.
Purpose
The purpose of this series is to explore the biblical theme of wilderness so that we can experience comfort and encouragement to trust God.
Summary
The wilderness is a brutal place of testing. Alone. Dark. Weary. Afraid. Yet…in that very place, God reveals himself. Like a lamp that illuminates only one step at a time, he, himself, leads us through the wilderness. As he does, he offers good gifts to those who trust him. These gifts of mercy, growth, provision, and reconciliation to himself are all wrapped up in the love of God unleashed into the world through the Son, the light of the world.
