Everyone has a choice  


Take me for example: I have the choice to grade and do lesson plans tonight or put it all off until tomorrow morning. Probably a much better choice to get a jump on most of it tonight. 


It’s been said that the choices we make make us. 


That was very true of the Egyptians as Israel made its exodus out of the land and out of slavery. 


Exodus‬ ‭12‬:‭38‬ ‭says, “And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle.”


“A mixed multitude”: Not just Jews but also Egyptians (and maybe others) who chose to follow God’s plan. There was risk, but it was the right choice. 


Still today there is risk to following God, but it’s worth it. It’s the right choice. 


Today’s Bible reading is Exodus 12.
