I missed last week and I apologize. Work had me traveling and I was tired to the point I didn’t realize I’d missed the post until the actual day the post should have been up…
Anyways, here’s a post though possibly not what you’d expect.
The Israelites complained. A lot!
It’s been so long since I’ve read the Bible that now as an adult I’m seeing things and understanding them where I didn’t as a child.
And the biggest thing so far? The Israelites seemed to adore complaining.
Here’s the thing that I keep thinking about (keeping in mind these are God’s chosen people!). They literally walked with God guiding them. He gave them water from a rock!
Food just showed up on the ground for them to eat!
God talked to their leader all the time and they still not only complained, but went against God’s commands.
This is like Adam and Eve. They literally walked with God all the time and then decided, ‘nah, we’ll be fine without Him’.
I can’t even imagine literally walking and talking with God, yet these people did and still looked around and constantly complained about what He’d done for them.
What the heck y’all?
Seriously, what the heck?!
Anyways, I’m having a blast reading the Bible as an adult now and I’m already in Numbers!
Till next time!
