I am captured by the words, "on that very day." After 430 years in Egypt, a new day arrives. What is "that very day" for you today? I know that you probably don't know and I don't know, but there is marker and it may be for you to discover today … if not with immediate clarity, then in reflection and retrospect.

"The time that the people of Israel lived in Egypt was 430 years. At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.  It was a night of watching by the LORD, to bring them out of the land of Egypt; so this same night is a night of watching kept to the LORD by all the people of Israel throughout their generations." – Exodus 12:40-42
