Egypt

Leaving Egypt behind to follow the God

Who set you free.   Humbling... frightening...

To those accustomed to the yoke of slavery;

Because in the comfort and misery of bondage

There is not much need for faith.

Thanks for the likes.

So many of us are in bondage to something. What is worse is to be comfortable with it.
