Today's word: Exodus 16:14-18

¹⁴ When the dew was gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor. ¹⁵ When the Israelites saw it, they said to each other, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was.
Moses said to them, "It is the bread the LORD has given you to eat. ¹⁶ This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Each one is to gather as much as he needs. Take an omer ^[a] for each person you have in your tent.' "

¹⁷ The Israelites did as they were told; some gathered much, some little. ¹⁸ And when they measured it by the omer, he who gathered much did not have too much, and he who gathered little did not have too little. Each one gathered as much as he needed.

Numbers 21:4-5

⁴ They traveled from Mount Hor along the route to the Red Sea, ^[a] to go around Edom. But the people grew impatient on the way; ⁵ they spoke against God and against Moses, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the desert? There is no bread! There is no water! And we detest this miserable food!"

How about you?
Is there some blessings in your life that you've begun to despise? You prayed for something and now when you have it, you complained and wish you have a better one? Or maybe you prayed that your small group will grow and now that it has, you don't like it because some members are not easy to handle? Be careful, never despise God's blessings.

To memorize: Numbers 21:7
We sinned when we spoke against the LORD
