Can you remember a time in your life when you ached for God to answer your prayers? As a little girl, Miriam learns about the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob at the knee of her mother, Jachebed. Yet Miriam is filled with doubt as she watches He3brew men toil as slaves under the hot sun and hears the wails of the Hebrew mothers as their infant sons are thrown into the Nile by orders of the pharaoh. When Jochebed sends her newborn son down the river in a basket, she has faith that God will deliver his people. Miriam is not as sure. She begs God to be merciful, but her prayers are unanswered year after year. Miriam is about to discover that God hasn't forgotten those He loves.
