If we are honest with ourselves, life has not always turned out as we expected. As youth we imagined life with great ambition and romance. The fairy tale that was to be our life, however, was shattered by reality.
The nation of Israel also had her ideas of what freedom from the bondage of Egypt would look like and their notions of what God would do for them. Exodus 16:3 has a lot to tell us about Israel's expectations and notions of God. It has some important lessons for us as we face the disappointments and detours of life.
This study is a look at Exodus 16:3 and its application as we face the disappointments of life.
