But he still has a lot to learn. In the days to come, he will gradually explore the path of God-God will gradually enlighten him (Psalm 1037); But now he is still full of personal opinions. In the future, he will become a hand of God, and God will inject life, use and power into it (Psalm 77: 20); But now he is used to acting according to his own blood-impulsiveness, willfulness and independence. The future land will be gentle and humble. Knowing that it is fragile and incomplete, we need to ask God for guidance and help from time to time. Now he acts according to his personal judgment and rarely asks God's will, thinking that he can save his suffering compatriots with his own strength, skills and will.
Ah! There are saints in him, but after a long period of lonely waiting and trial, his stubborn and self-reliant nature will be torn down and shaped into a vessel suitable for the Lord, ready to do all kinds of good deeds.

-First attempt to save our countrymen. (1) Out of pity. When he arrived in Goshen, the first thing he wanted to do was to look at the sufferings of his compatriots and understand their working environment. Bricklaying in a clay pit is a chore, not to mention being beaten by a foreman in the Egyptian sun! Imagine what it's like to be a gifted scholar who is pampered in the palace and has both civil and military skills, among this heavy slave. At first, he must feel out of place, and it is difficult to recognize these suffering, groaning and dying Hebrew slaves as brothers and sisters. "He went out to find his brothers. But seeing compatriots sigh under the shackles and groan under the backlog of sadness, strangeness was quickly replaced by strong sympathy. After a period of time, pity for compatriots turned into resentment against oppressors. After a few steps, he saw an Egyptian foreman brutally flogging a Hebrew. His trembling body was full of scars but there was no room to fight back. Seeing this terrible scene, Moses couldn't bear it anymore and killed the foreman in a rage. After hastily burying the man's body, he left the construction site.
