Tender heart, courage and bravery are the garlands of this princess. While little is known of her, the nation of Israel can never tell its history with this unnamed princess. Let’s discovered her existence in today’s stuy as we explore Exodus 2

How does it apply to me today?

While the bible was not explicit about Pharaoh’s daughter's marital status, she was now the mother to one of the boys her father was going to kill. I wonder how that might have impacted the relationship she had with her father, her eligibility to marry and if she was already married how she explained it away to her husband. Irrespective of the personal cost to her (costs which are beyond money) Pharaoh’s daughter stepped in to save a baby boy.

She stuck her neck out? What would we stick our neck out for? How do we react to the injustice around  us in our communities? Are we indifference thinking it does not affect us directly or do we step up to help in the capacity of our ability?

Proverb 31 6-8 says

Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.

The bible tells us Ecclesiastes 9:10 : Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might

This unnamed princess by providence was raising an inter-racial man. And she did all the best that she could. What do we have in our hands to do? Are we putting the very best to it?

While there is not much recorded about Pharaoh’s daughter, we don't even know her name but what she did for Moses and the nation of Israel cannot be overlooked.

God changed many people’s names in the bible or gave them their names before they were born. I have wondered why God never asked that the name of Moses be changed? His name Moses was given to him by the mother ( Egyptian) who saved him and brought him up. For me it points to the recognition of the sacrifice and service this unmanned Princess made to bring up this vulnerable baby boy into the man God used to deliver Israel from Egypt.

The garlands of this unnamed princess are tender hearted, courageous and resolved. What are the garlands around your own neck?
