Summary

🎙 COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS May 4–10 | Numbers 11–14; 20–24; 27 Why Do We Want to Go Back to Egypt? Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. Your weekly Come, Follow Me scripture study where we pull out the meat and potatoes and apply it to real mom life. This week… we are in Numbers. And I’m just going to say it… This one felt personal. Because the Israelites… They saw miracles. They were led by God. They had literal food falling from heaven. And still… They complained. They doubted. They wanted to go back. And I wrote in my scriptures: Why do the people want to return to Egypt? And then I paused… And thought… Why do I sometimes want to? Why do I want to go back to things that are familiar… even if they weren’t good? Why do I go back to old patterns, old thoughts, old ways… just because they’re comfortable? This week is not about a journey across land. It’s about a journey of becoming. And honestly… That is motherhood. President Nelsons Talk: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2018/04/revelation-for-the-church-revelation-for-our-lives?lang=eng Manna Is Falling… and We’re Complaining Numbers 11 The people are getting food raining down from heaven… And they are complaining. How often do we do this? We pray for something… God gives it to us… And then we complain about it. We pray for the job… we get it… and then we don’t like it. We pray for our kids… and then feel overwhelmed by them. Manna didn’t stop being a miracle… They just stopped seeing it that way. As Dieter F. Uchtdorf taught, gratitude is a way of life. “I Can’t Do This… It’s Too Heavy” Numbers 11:14 Moses says: “I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.” That is motherhood. This is too much. I can’t handle this. I feel alone. But God didn’t remove the responsibility. He gave Moses help. He sent the 70 elders. You were never meant to do motherhood alone. God sends support and He sends His Spirit. Personal Revelation Is Everything This part is everything for moms. From Russell M. Nelson: “I plead with you to increase your spiritual capacity to receive revelation… choose to do the spiritual work required to enjoy the gift of the Holy Ghost and hear the voice of the Spirit more frequently and more clearly.” Motherhood clarity does not come from social media, comparison, or pressure. It comes from revelation. Pray. Listen. Write down what comes. Act on it. You don’t need a louder world. You need clearer revelation. “Let’s Go Back to Egypt” Numbers 13–14 The Israelites are right next to the promised land… And they say, let’s go back. Egypt represents what is familiar. Even if it wasn’t better… it felt easier. Sometimes we want: Our old life Our old routine Our old body Our old identity But God didn’t call you backward. He called you forward. Egypt was familiar… But it wasn’t promised. 10 Spies vs 2 Spies Twelve spies go into the promised land. They all see the same thing. A beautiful land. God’s promises. And also… challenges. Ten spies say: We can’t do this. We’re not enough. Two spies, Joshua and Caleb, say: Yes it’s hard… but God is with us. We can do this. Same situation. Different perspective. This is motherhood. You can focus on the hard… Or you can see the growth, the purpose, and God’s hand in it. The difference wasn’t the land. It was how they saw it. Fear says: we’re not enough. Faith says: God is enough. The Brass Serpent — It Feels Too Simple Numbers 21 The people are bitten by serpents. They are suffering. They are dying. And God gives them a solution: Look… and be healed. That’s it. Look at the brass serpent and live. But some people didn’t look. Not because it didn’t work… But because it felt too simple. This is about Jesus Christ. Healing is available. Peace is available. Help is available. But sometimes we don’t look. We’re overwhelmed. We’re anxious. We’re struggling. And the invitation is simple: Turn to Christ. Pray. Remember Him. And we think… That’s not enough. But what if the answer you’re looking for… Is simple… And you’ve been overlooking it? They didn’t die because there wasn’t a cure. They died because they wouldn’t look. Meekness Is Strength Numbers 12:3 Moses was described as very meek. Meekness is not weakness. It is strength, restraint, and submission to God. Meek moms are not passive. They are Spirit-led. Grounded. Surrendered to God. Meekness is choosing God’s way… even when your emotions are loud. Elder Bednar Talk https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2018/04/meek-and-lowly-of-heart?lang=eng This Week’s Invitation Mamas… Where are you right now? Are you complaining about manna? Feeling overwhelmed like Moses? Wanting to go back to Egypt? Or avoiding the simple answer because it feels too easy? This week: Pray and ask Listen Write it down Act on it...
