Moses didn’t receive his calling till he was 40. He didn’t start his ministry till he was 80. It took one encounter with a burning bush – maybe 10 or 15 minutes duration – to change the world and create a legend.
Jesus lived maybe 33 years – but only 2 or 3 years doing his thing – but they were enough.
