Exodus 4:1-3
The Source of Sufficiency
4:1 Moses answered again, “And if they do not believe me or pay attention to me, but say, ‘The Lord has not appeared to you’?”
4:2 The Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” He said, “A staff.”
4:3 The Lord said, “Throw it to the ground.” So he threw it to the ground, and it became a snake, and Moses ran from it.
