Chapter 16

Start a list with 2 columns.  On one side write the complaints or sin of the Israelites, in the opposite column write what God did or how He responded.  Do this throughout the book of Exodus. Here are some verses to get you started.  14:12, 15:24, 16:3.  The list will get long.  We have 40 years.  Every time you write about the children of Israel think about times you have said or done the same thing. 

Verse 3 – When have you forgotten that the Lord provided in your life?  For example: “Gosh I hate the mud.” This would be a response when you forgot you asked God to provide moisture.

Where in your life have you realized God is consistent and unchanging?
