1. The deceiver, the liar Jacob.
God is truth and a God of justice. If there is one thing God cannot do, it is that He cannot lie. But God also uses liars.
Jacob deceived his father and deceived his brother. They cheated on food, cheated on cooking skills, cheated on hunting. He deceived himself by disguising his whole body, and received blessings by deceit. For example, the chieftain of Israel
I had to keep lying for one lie.
2. Jonah the disobedient and fugitive; disobeying God's commands. Time and riches used to disobey the will, and fled to Tarshish. Rather than letting him run away, he uses Nineveh to repent.

It is a day where we can meet God even in the midst of boring and frustrating times in our daily life that we did not expect. You never know when you will lead us into a new life. Live the day faithfully and look forward to it
2. By using the bush
A bush is a tree that is always in the wilderness. An ordinary tree that Moses had always seen, an ordinary tree that Moses might have cut and used for shepherding, God uses it to suddenly give us a special interest in the things around us that we always see. A bush that does not burn A tree in the midst of a flame A tree that does not become ashes... Sudden interest was made. Something like a coincidence could be an event of God.

The cry of the suffering in Egypt brought God to meet Moses. God who hears
4. Moses' Response to the Call
