In this week’s parsha, Moses’ journey begins with hesitation and doubt, yet he steps forward, showing that transformation begins with a single brave choice. Parsha Shemot allows us to reflect on the essence of Moses’ mindset when faced with fear of the unknown, and take from this the lesson that courage, even in the dark, guides us towards the light. With faith, Moses was able to seek clarity through moments of Divine Providence, such as with the burning bush.
 
The midwives Shifra and Puah defy Pharaoh’s decree, embodying the value to stand against injustice, even at great personal risk. Their actions remind us that even small acts of defiance can ripple outward, sparking change. Shemot teaches that while fear is natural, true strength lies in choosing to act despite it, a lesson that resonates in a world often demanding boldness and integrity.
