About This Quote

Moses asks God for water, and then asks what the scent is, because he’s thirsty. God doesn’t just say “Water.” He tells Moses about renewal, about goodness coming down like dew, and the importance of putting ourselves in God’s hands. The same goes for our lives today. We look to God for help and guidance, but we need to put ourselves in God’s hands by looking to him for renewal.
