Monday - Ordinary Days

Exodus 3:1–2 – “Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.”
Moses wasn’t looking for a burning bush. He was going to work.
It was an ordinary day. Sheep. Dust. Routine.
And then God met him.
That’s how hinge moments usually happen. Warren Wiersbe once said, “Like large doors, great life-changing events often swing on very small hinges.” Most of the time, we don’t recognize those hinges until later.
When I was 16 at youth camp, it felt like just another week. I packed my bag. Got on the bus. Showed up ready for games and fun. I wasn’t expecting God to change my life.
But day after day, message after message, God was quietly working in my heart.
Nehemiah 1 begins the same way:
“In the month Chisleu… as I was in Shushan the palace.”
Just another day.
Until it wasn’t.
Takeaway:
God often does His deepest work on the most ordinary days.
