I wonder if you’ve had the experience of what I call the great ‘backfire’? You went out of your way to try and help someone and it ‘backfired’!

In fact perhaps they’ve actually pulled away from you, wounded by your ‘backfired’ attempt to help them! That’s exactly what happened to Moses in his first attempt to help the Hebrew slaves in Egypt.
