For the one who brings bewilderment to the Lord.
Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, “Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Why is it that you have sent me? For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has brought trouble on this people. You have not rescued your people at all!”
Have you ever said, "Why have you brought trouble on me?" You obeyed, you spoke in His name, and the trouble increased. You expected rescue, and you got none. The question is not whether you will have bewilderment; it is where you will take it.
The false refuge is to demand a reason before you will trust. You want God to justify Himself before you continue. But Moses did not negotiate. He returned to Yahweh with his bewilderment. He did not turn away. He brought the accusation to the only One who could bear it. He did not let the trouble become a wall between him and God. He turned it into a conversation. That is the difference between accusation and prayer.
In Christ, God entered the very trouble you bring to Him. On the cross, He took the weight of your bewilderment and answered it not with a reason but with His own body. He did not rescue His Son from the trouble; He raised Him through it. So your rescue is not yet visible, but it is certain. Bring your bewilderment to the One who bore it on the cross.
Bring your bewilderment to the One who bore it on the cross.
Lord, I bring my bewilderment to You; help me leave it at the cross.
