In the 40 years the Israelites roamed the dessert less than a mile from the promised land they experienced many calamities.
Most of them of their own making!
In Exodus 17 they were encamped at a place where there was no water. Extremely thirsty they turned against Moses and God crying that they had been brought of slavery in Egypt to die in the desert. In their distress they wanted to know if the Lord was with them or not.
A frustrated Moses went to God for help. God instructed Moses to strike the rock with his staff, water came out and the Israelites were thirsty no more. The matter was settled the Lord was with them.
We are like the Israelites, roaming around from one calamity to another. Frustrated, wondering, if the Lord is really with us.
It is in these moments we need to be like Moses, we need to go to God for comfort, for guidance and for solutions.
For when we do, we can be assured that despite the calamities of life God is truly with us.
