When Our Plans for Our Children Unravel
LOOK:
Take a few moments to gaze upon the artwork. Breathe
deeply in quiet meditation as you observe the visual
qualities of what you see: color, line, texture, movement,
shape, form.
Now take a deeper look. What parts of the image are your
eyes most drawn to? What parts of the image did you
overlook?
Now engage your imagination. If you were to place
yourself in this scene, where would you be and how
would you interact with what surrounds you?
Reflect:
- What has unraveled and/or is unraveling in this story?
- Imagine this story from the perspective of each
character—Pharaoh, Moses’ mother, Miriam,
Pharaoh’s daughter. Why does each character do
what s/he does?
- What causes Pharaoh’s daughter’s heart to soften
when she finds Moses in the river? Why does she
choose to nurture and adopt Moses as her own? What
can we learn from her actions?
