Exodus 22:21 (NIV)
²¹“Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner, for you were foreigners in Egypt.
"መጻተኛውን አትበድሉት ወይም አታስጨንቁት፤ እናንተ በግብፅ መጻተኛ ነበራችሁና።”
— ዘጸአት 22፥21 (አዲሱ መ.ት)
Exodus 23:9 (NIV)
⁹“Do not oppress a foreigner; you yourselves know how it feels to be foreigners, because you were foreigners in Egypt.
““መጻተኛውን አትጨቁን፤ በግብፅ መጻተኛ ስለ ነበራችሁ፣ መጻተኛ ምን እንደሚሰማው እናንተ ራሳችሁ ታውቃላችሁና።”
— ዘጸአት 23፥9 (አዲሱ መ.ት)
So this same verse repeated in two consecutive chapters is not a coincidence.
Everyone has a story of their own. አልፈው የመጡበት፣ እያለፉበት ያለው ግን ካለፈ በኋላ ሲያወሩት በአቅሜ አለፍኩት በራሴ እንዲህ አደረኩ ብለው boast የሚያደርጉበት ሳይሆን when a person passes through that same situation and you come across them, Since you know how that feels there is no one better than you at that time to help them. And isnt that what makes God happy?
So whatever you maybe passing through, maybe all of it is not for your own sake but for others. For you to help others.
Be the person who you needed when you were hurting.
