Everyone struggles with doubt in the wilderness. The question is whether we will focus on what stands against us or who stands for us, whether we will look to Jesus or look to ourselves.

Grumbling is as dangerous as it is easy to slip into. Do you know what you tend to complain about, and what it says about your heart, and what it says about God?

For all their repetition and apparent randomness, the rules and regulations of Numbers 1-10 work together to make one clear point and to raise one crucial question. God’s presence with his people is precious. Is God’s presence precious to you?

The story of Numbers is our story as Christians. It’s setting is our setting, it’s trials are our trials, and it’s Lord is our Lord.
