A man from the house of Levi married a Levite woman as his wife. The woman became pregnant and gave birth to a son. Seeing how handsome he was, she hid him for three months. Later, when he could no longer hide it, he took a bulrush box, painted it with stone paint and oil, put the child in it, and placed the box among the reeds by the river... The Pharaoh's daughter came to the river to take a bath. ,... When he saw the box among the reeds, he sent a maid to bring it. When he opened the box and saw the child, who was crying, he had pity on him and said, "It is one of the children of the Hebrews." The child's sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Is it okay for me to go and call a wet nurse from among the Hebrew women to nurse this child for you?" Pharaoh's daughter said, "Yes," and the virgin went and called the mother of the child. Pharaoh's daughter said to him, "Take this child and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him. And when the child grew, the woman took him to Pharaoh's daughter, and she became his son: and he called his name Moses, saying, Because I drew him out of the water. (Exodus 2 l--10) The Bible records that Moses' first action was to cry. This was all he could do at the time, and his family was responsible for the rest. His parents worked together, gathering cattails, weaving boxes, and applying waterproof paint. Even though Miriam was young, she still had her share of responsibility. So this God-believing family placed their newborn baby on a foreign river full of death threats. Faithful parents today can similarly expose their infants to the currents of modern society that are more dangerous than ever before. Our rush is prayer, through which we can weave a protective shell for our little lives. Our stone paint is love, it forms a safe barrier. What we trust is the same as the family of Moses at the beginning. It is the most high God who will accomplish great things for everyone who trusts. He can even touch the heart of Pharaoh’s daughter with the cry of Moses: all things work for him.
