  3. What grace is this? It’s grace from Christ, who often seizes us when we least expect it, even through the hands of His enemies.
  4. The Word of the Lord is sure. The enemy is defeated. Salvation is waiting for you.
  5. God is often hidden in history, even as we make it now, but He is always manifest where He has promised to be.
  6. Lent means that we do not have to look to ourselves but can look to our neighbor in love as Christ has loved us.
  7. God is mercy. He was mercy then. He’s mercy now. God showed them His glory, if only a reflection, in the face of Moses.

  12. God's power and works are awesome and cannot be stifled. His grace and mercy will be heard above the growls and howls of those who deny Christ Jesus is God and Savior
