The people blamed Moses and said, “If only we had died in the Lord’s presence with our brothers! 4Why have you brought the congregation of the Lord’s people into this wilderness to die, along with all our livestock? 5Why did you make us leave Egypt and bring us here to this terrible place? This land has no grain, no figs, no grapes, no pomegranates, and no water to drink!”

because there the people of Israel argued with the Lord, and there he demonstrated his holiness among them.

Lord God my Father

Quiet my thoughts so I may hear your direction and not question your desire for me. Create in me an obedience that honors you and represents you well.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
