Hey girls. I am also doing the Beth Moore bible study on the tabernacle. This morning we were talking about how the Israelites were complaining when they were in the wilderness. They were missing the food they had in Egypt and wanted to go back and so God provided them with quail and manna.
It made me think of when we are in our version of wilderness and we want to go back to something just because it was familiar - good or bad - it was familiar. When you are going through so many new things and just want something that we know! I was thinking about all of us and how all of us are in new territories. Whether it be in jobs, school, having children, wondering what the future holds. Take confidence and gain peace in knowing that God can be the familiar thing to which you cling. Nothing that happens in your life is a surprise to Him. He knew the day I walked into that meeting room that I would be laid off. He knew that Dara would be trying to figure out what to write her dissertation on. He knows!
Also, we can take comfort in knowing that we have each other as a support system and the source of friendship and love. Be ASSURED my dear sisters that when you are going through the battles of life, we are here for you. Just like when Moses had to keep his arms raised in order for the Israelites to keep winning. He was so tired and Aaron and Hur came along side him and lifted his arms for him.
:) Love you girlies! Heading to the mountains this weekend for Molly's wedding!
