The Israelites might have experienced the most epic rescue story ever, but they couldn’t seem to help themselves from complaining along the way.

They were given so much…you and I have been given so much! We’ve been forgiven our sins through God’s gift of grace…we are promised a future in eternity!

Whatever else happens to us, we’ve got nothing to complain about…

Oh, to grace how great a debtorDaily I’m constrained to beLet Thy goodness like a fetterBind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord I feel itProne to leave the God I loveHere’s my heart, oh take and seal itSeal it for Thy courts above
Here’s my heartOh take and seal itSeal it for Thy courts above
– from “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” (18th century, Robert Robinson)

9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you,[a]not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

2 Peter 3:9 (ESV)
