Moses worries that the Israelites will doubt his story and refuse to believe that God appeared to him. The Hebrew word for "believe" is aman, meaning to trust or rely on. This is a very human reaction—Moses is anxious about being dismissed or called a liar. The verse pushes against the expectation that spiritual leaders are always confident or fearless. Instead, it shows that even the people who change history often start out uncertain and afraid of rejection. If you've ever hesitated to speak up or worried people wouldn't take you seriously, Moses' question is yours too. You don't have to be fearless to make a difference; sometimes, honesty about your doubts is the first step toward courage.
