I’m tired. We drove for two days to spend two days with my brother in Virginia. Then we drove two more days to come home. Can you get jet lag in a car?

I didn’t even do much driving. I was the navigator! Navigators do not get to nap!

I don’t know how professional musicians do it – sleeping in a different bed each night, riding a thousand miles and doing it all over again.

I thought about calling my 80-year-old mother to see how she was doing after our trip. Then I remembered the last time, I called and she wasn’t even home, having resumed her normal schedule.

When 3 cups of coffee and a Mountain Dew failed to perk me up, I gave up and took a nap. If I’m lucky, I will catch up the laundry and finish unpacking today. I feel like such a wimp.

But God sees a warrior!

Exodus 6:26, “It was that Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, ‘Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their armies.’ ” Modern English Version

The Israelites saw themselves as slaves living under cruel bondage. God saw them as armies. Each family was an army. We see people; God sees their potential.
