Exodus 14:11-14 – Focus verse: 11 (NIV) They said to Moses, “Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die?
“Moses, like every spiritual leader since, had to marvel at the capacity of people to idealize or to reinvent the past.” They blamed the leader for every difficulty. But Moses interceded for the people. He pleaded their case before God; and his heart grew each time. “Constant intercession seems to be the prescription or retaining a shepherd’s longsuffering heart. One mark of genuine spiritual greatness is compassion for one’s tormentors” (McNeal).
