"But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes."Numbers 11:6

The children of Israel in the wilderness always complain to Moses that they "Wannna go back to Egypt". In the passage above, God had been sending Manna from heaven to feed them. You would think that the Israelites would remain in awe of how God kept raining down this special heavenly delicacy that was able to feed thousands and thousands of people. But after a while it just became commonplace, even boring. Every morning they would witness God's miraculous provision right before their very eyes, yet they wanted something else, something better! At times, even we can get accustomed to our blessings so quickly, can't we?! We're always looking at what others have and wanting more! If the stars came out only once a year, everybody would stay up all night to behold them. But we have seen the stars so often that we don't even bother to look anymore! Let's be sure not to take God's provisions lightly though we see them on a daily basis! Brothers & Sisters, let's examine our hearts today, and purpose to appreciate the goodness of God's provision upon our lives. Truly, we are blessed and we thank you Lord for your goodness! HUNGRY!?
