The fears of Moses

So familiar, with us
the fears of Moses
the “I can’ts” we offer
when we fail to believe

Thinking only about our limits
not the infinity of God
our own feet of clay
not the majesty of our master

Not hearing the voice of God
the “I wills” he promises
to be with us, beside us
to give us the strength
transforming us for a purpose
the tools to do the work
