While catching up with family and friends, let us not fail to give glory to God for His guidance and blessing.
Moses’ conversation with his father in law begins and ends with the Lord.

Without His saving power we would remain slaves to sin. Without His daily leadership we would choose wrong paths. And without His intervention in times of difficulty we would experience only defeat.
Moses expressed with words all the Lord had done, choosing not to take any credit for himself. The result is glory for the God of Israel and respect for a man of God who praised Him.
