Hard-hearted Pharaoh.
Plague after plague,
he refuses the request
or goes back on his word.
Then.
Misery yields his
sudden
confession of sin. [Exodus 10:16-17]

“Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go” (Joshua 1:16).
No half-hearted maybes. Balking at the unknowns. Questions about personal safety.
No calculating anticipated losses.
Everything and everywhere.
No turning back.

“To live is Christ and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21). Paul’s words help us stay the course. In life. And death.
October 2000. The phone rang at our home in Virginia.
A friend living in Karachi was calling.
“Ed is in very serious condition. Please pray.”
