When Jethro came Moses greeted him and then proceeded to tell the great things the Lord God had done. They fellowshipped together with God. What stories am I sharing, telling to my family and extended family? Am I too telling God's faithfulness in my life? And when I fellowship together, how is God's presence seen or shown to be present? Help me daily Lord to share Your great faithfulness in my life - the wonderful things You have done for me. Not only did Moses tell of God's mighty works to others but he also had an open mind. He took the advice of his father-in-law readily. All too often those in the work of God's kingdom go it alone, doing their thing, their ministry. It become dependent upon them and the ministry will end when they leave or die. God has given workers for His kingdom to help one another, encourage one another, support one another. Not only is this passage about delegating, but also seeing a new way of doing things. All too often we have a closed mind thinking that our way is the best way. When alternatives are offered, look at them. It is always better to work in company for if the one falls down, then the other is there to pick him up. Thank You Lord for the team of which I am a part of at QCS. Together we can make a difference and with Your blessing and gudance throughout this new year, we will. Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah, Pilgrim through this barren land. I am weak, but Thou art mighty; Hold me with Thy powerful hand. Bread of Heaven, Bread of Heaven, Feed me till I want no more; Feed me till I want no more. Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing stream doth flow; Let the fire and cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through. Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer, Be Thou still my Strength and Shield; Be Thou still my Strength and Shield. Telling the story of God’s presence in our life is important.

Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land.
I am weak, but Thou art mighty;
Hold me with Thy powerful hand.
Bread of Heaven, Bread of Heaven,
Feed me till I want no more;
Feed me till I want no more.
Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
Be Thou still my Strength and Shield;
Be Thou still my Strength and Shield.
