Exodus 32
1Now when the people saw that Moses was delayed in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, “Come, make us gods who will go before us. As for this Moses who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him!”
“As later Israel wanted a human king, not the invisible divine king (1 Samuel 8:4-8), so now they want a god ‘with a face’, like everybody else.” (Cole)
Forty days must have seemed like forever! But to God and Moses it wasn’t.
Why do we become impatient when we are waiting on people or God?
Why is it that we want a god with a face?
This reminds me of a verse...
John 20:29 Jesus said to him, "Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
Do you have faith in the invisible divine King or desire a god with a face?
Blessings, David
