Well, we are in the book of Numbers this week in our read through the Bible.  And the theme that you will see time and time again is complaining.  Even with the cloud of God’s presence visible night and day and directly directing them, they still did not see God’s provision and presence.  But complaining is something that is in the nature of all of us.  You do not have to look far to see it in our own lives.   So how do you keep yourself from complaining.  Something we learned (indirectly) on Sunday.  Count your blessings.  Blessings are more fun to count than complaints any way!  And best of all you will never run out of blessings to count so you will never have time to complain.
