Moses page 28 by ric gustafson
" Moses" Aaron proclaimed as he ran into the tent. " You've got to come out and talk to the people".
He nodded. He walked out to a large crowd.
" What are you doing to us Moses?" someone yelled. " At least in Egypt we had pots of meat". The yelling got louder. " You have brought us out here to starve to death".
" We must believe". Moses pleaded to the crowd. " He will always provide and take care of us".
" How do you know that Moses?".
" I know that he loves us and will take care of us".
Moses went back into his tent. He prayed to God. He got an answer.
" I will rain down bread from heaven". The voice hesitated. " The people are to gather just what they need that day".
That night, a cloud of quails descended on the camp. The people ate and were satisfied.
The next morning, small white particles dotted the ground. Moses explained to the people what it was.
" It's called manna". He smiled at the people. " Only gather what you need for each day".
Moses prayed to God and thanked him for providing for his people.
