We reflect on the story of Shiphrah and Puah in Exodus 1, where the Hebrew midwives lied to Pharaoh to save innocent lives and were blessed by God for their fear of Him. We wrestle with the difference between selfish lies and life-preserving ones that align with God\u2019s heart and covenant purposes. Our conversation broadens to other biblical examples, highlighting that God\u2019s plans can work even through human deception. Ultimately, we conclude that our hearts\u2014not just our words\u2014determine whether our actions honor God.
