Exodus 16:1 to 18:27

 

My Father in heaven, we forget so easily Your great provision and Your amazing deliverance.  We are willing to trust You for physical provision, while we ignore You for the provision of peace and joy.  Instead of faith being our tool of surrender to You, we try to make it a scepter with which we command You.  It is no wonder our faith should fail in some of the smallest tests.  Of course, there have been and still are some who could leave this world with starved bodies, rejoicing in the goodness of God, because they know that Your provision transcends the will of man as well as the false goodness of man.  It seems that the difference between Moses and the people, is that Moses was living by Your Word, rather than by his immediate physical comfort.  Father, I have lived so much by my physical comfort that failure in devotion to You has been all too common.  Forgive me Father.  I love You.  Amen.
