Today’s bible crafts are centered around teaching the story of Moses. (This was one of the original posts on this blog – It’s now being updated for easier reading purposes). Happy Mother’s Day, to my mom (Vivian Young) and all the other mothers who believe in your children but release them by faith for God to work in and through them.Teach the story of Moses and Reinforce it with these 5 Simple Objects and Craft Ideas I don’t pretend to fully understand motherhood but I love the fact that this mother released her son by faith and was rewarded in the most amazing way! Not only did she get him back for a time but got paid to take care of him. God, in his providence, allowed her to have him back and get paid to nurse him. By faith, this mother released her child to God’s plan by floating him down the river. ![]() That’s the part I love and the example for us all. And it gets even cooler because Pharaoh’s daughter said, “Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” Crazy cool! Miriam (Moses’ sister) went and got her own mom. Miriam watched the events unfold and offered to find a nurse for the baby. Pharaoh’s daughter took pity on this child, recognizing the Hebrew baby was destined to die without intervention. She stationed a lookout. (The Bible doesn’t say this but you’ve got to think that Moses’ mother told Miriam to watch the basket.) As his sister watched, the daughter of Pharaoh saw the basket and found baby Moses.She knew that if she held on to him, he would soon be killed like the other Hebrew children. Take note of the fact that her faith prompted her to do this. Clearly, not a great option but at least he had a chance. By faith, Moses’ mom did the only thing she could think of. She put her precious baby in a floating basket in the Nile.His life was literally in danger as Pharaoh ordered that every son born of the Hebrews should be cast into the Nile. Moses was a beautiful baby, “a fine child” – He was born in a time of turmoil. ![]() Take time this week to read Exodus 2:1-10 to learn about the faith of Moses’ mother. For Mother’s Day, I thought I’d point you to one of my favorite Mom stories in the Bible.
