Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this show me about God?

    • The people accuse God of bringing them out to die, and God gives them water. What does that show about his patience?

  2. What does it show me about people — and about me?

    • They ask whether the Lord is with them or not. What makes people doubt that so quickly?

  3. What will I obey this week?

    • What will you ask God for this week instead of complaining about it?

  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who does a lot of complaining around you? How could you be kind to them?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

God, your people shouted at Moses and you gave them water anyway. Thank you for being kind to me when I complain. Help me ask you instead of grumbling.
