Emptiness is not punishment

from TWC Afterthoughts Hosted by John

Emptiness is not punishment Exo 1:15 And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: Exo 1:16 And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. Exo 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the men children alive. These women really feared God They were in Awe of God Their conscience was seared by the worship of God These women were midwives in a slave community. That means they were present at: Every birth Every death Every cry in the night Every mother's desperation Every child's first breath That kind of work either hardens or hollows you into reverence.
