He is one of the greatest heroes in the Bible and one of the greatest examples of quality leadership combined with devotion to God. But Moses also had several flaws - he made excuses, he sometimes had a short fuse, he doubted...a lot! Even before he became the leader of Israel, Moses struggled with his own sense of self-worth. What can his flaws teach me about my value and how I view myself? And how can I get better at seeing my value through God's eyes?
We often look at characters in the Bible, especially the ones we label “Bible heroes,” as almost perfect people. We assume they all had unshakeable faith and very few if any character flaws. The reality is that many of the people we read about in scripture were far from perfect. They made mistakes. They doubted. They got things wrong. And yet, despite their flaws God used them to do incredible things. Who are some of these imperfect followers of God? And what can their stories teach us about our own potential to be used by God in powerful ways?
