When you’re in a spiritual desert you might not get what you asked for, but you’ll get what you need. The Israelites got what they needed but they didn’t like it. They didn’t like the manna God provided. They were ready to go back into slavery to get something that tasted good. You gotta learn to be grateful even when the provision isn’t what you want or what you asked for.

So what did God do when they began to complain? He sent poisonous snakes. BUT, when the people humbled themselves and confessed their sin and asked Moses to go to God for them God gave Moses a solution. It wasn’t what they asked for but it was what they needed.

Sometimes not getting what you asked for is the greatest gift you can receive.
