This week, we learned about how God provided for the Israelites on their long journey out of Egypt. After more than 400 years of slavery, the Israelites were finally free! They traveled out of Egypt, crossed the Red Sea, and found themselves in the wilderness. In this desert, there was little food or water, and soon the people became anxious. They started to complain, even wishing they could go back to Egypt.

But God heard their worries and took care of them. In the evenings, God sent quail for them to eat, and in the mornings, He provided manna—bread from heaven. God gave them just what they needed, but no more; any leftovers spoiled by the next day. This was a way for God to teach them to trust Him each day.

This story reminds us of how God provides for us, even when we’re uncertain. It also shows us the importance of being grateful and not taking things for granted. Sometimes, we may feel we don’t have enough or wish for more, but God invites us to trust in His daily care.

On a fun note—did you see last week’s announcement that we’re hoping for a visit from Santa at our church? He’s trying to fit us into his busy schedule and is penciling us in for December 15 after lunch. We’ll keep you posted as we get closer. Looking forward to seeing you in church on Sunday!
