This morning, we will join the Israelites at the beginning of their journey in the wilderness to Sinai. As God used the wilderness to test the hearts and obedience of the Israelites, so too he uses seasons in our lives to do the same. It is easy to observe the sins and shortcomings of the Israelites, but it is my prayer this morning that the school of the wilderness may teach us and train our hearts as we trust and follow Jesus by faith wherever He may lead.
