Numbers 11 · Grade 2
Grumbling in the Camp
Read the Story
God's people began to complain. They forgot all the good things God had done. Moses prayed, and God listened.
Then they cried, We want meat! We miss the food in Egypt! All we see is this manna. But manna was a gift from God every morning.
Moses felt the job was too big for him alone. God gave him seventy helpers. God sent birds called quail for meat. God wanted His people to trust Him and be thankful.
