As the Israelites had traveled from the land to their new home, God sent a cloud by day and a fire by night.

Both of these were very real symbols to the nation that God was leading them, and they represented three beautiful things for the Israelites.

First, the cloud and the fire were God's provision. The cloud gave shade to the tiny nation traveling through the harsh climate.

When God does a new thing in our lives, it can be scary.

While the Israelites were certainly thankful to be free, the idea of journeying to a new place had to be overwhelming at times.

Let God be your cloud by day and your fire by night and rest in His love.

Together, Giving Jesus,
