Exodus 2:1-15 / Matthew 11:20-24    

We believe that God all-powerful and with Him nothing is impossible.

We believe that God will help us when we turn to Him for help in our troubles

As much as we are to surrender all to God, it does not mean that we just sit there and wait for God to act.

God will help those who help themselves.

That was what the mother of Moses did in the 1st reading.

When she couldn’t hide him anymore, she did whatever she could for him, and then left the matter into the hands of God.

Through the faith and action of the mother of Moses, his life was saved.

So when we are down to nothing, God will come up with something.

So let us pray as if everything depends on God.

But let us also work for solutions, as if everything depends on us.
