"Moses was wounded, Churchill was wounded, and perhaps you are wounded." "The God who oversees and controls the events of history is overseeing your life as well. And He knows exactly what He is doing. You may have lost control of your circumstances, but He has not. He has enrolled you in a course you didn't sign up for. And if you remain teachable, He'll make sure you finish strong."
"God was far from finished
with Moses. Although Moses felt God had removed His hand from him,
nothing was further from the truth. God's hand was as firmly on Moses
in the desert as it had been when he was a babe in the bulrushes. God
was signing Moses up for a master's degree with a major in character
development. While he was in the desert over the next forty years,
Moses took four core courses: unemployment 101, advanced obscurity,
remedial waiting, and intermediate loneliness." (162-3)
