Yea, even now the child is being born. There have been many birth pangs, there has been much travail to bring forth - but it has not come forth by thy efforts. For it is by my word that all things are accomplished. You could not do it. I am doing it.

Even as a few went in to Egypt - were forced to go there for lack of food - many came out of Egypt. For I used Egypt as a place of incubation to grow and birth a people that would become a nation.

I used the oppression laid on the people by Egypt to temper, to fashion, to mould a people that would be able to endure hardship that would be able to overcome afflictions. I held them in my hand, I started a relationship with that people. I watched over them, I provided for them, I protected them, I loved them.
