Exodus 2:9
Then Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away and nurse him for me and I shall give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him.
Wow, Moses' own mother could have him back as a child, and was even paid, to care for and teach him about his own heritage as a Hebrew of the Tribe of Levi, and their God Who chose his ancestor Abraham. That's why, when he became an adult, Moses knew who he was: That he was adopted out of the Hebrew Nation into Pharaoh's family to be educated in all the learning of the Egyptians to be the next Pharaoh.
God took care of Moses, and prepared him with education, pomp and circumstance, and also with quiet pastoral training on the "far side of the desert." God knew the plans He had for Moses, and took His time in preparing him very meticulously for the role He had for him.
I don't ever want to complain about God's taking His time with me, either. I know He is preparing me for the eventual role He has planned for me. Just as Moses didn't know how his role would pan out until He actually led Israel from their slavery in Egypt; so I don't know how my life will flow when God deems me ready to live out and accomplish the plans He has for me.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
