Will You Get Up and Act?

Exodus 15:24 Then the people complained and they turned against Moses.

3 days. 3 days after parting the sea, leading my children across on dry ground and then swallowing up the entire army of Pharaoh that pursued them…..3 days later my children are complaining.

Exodus 16:1-3 They arrived there on the fifteenth day of the second month, one month after leaving the land of Egypt. There, too, the whole community of Israel complained about Moses and Aaron. “If only the Lord had killed us back in Egypt,” they moaned. “There we sat around pots filled with meat and ate all the bread we wanted. But now you have brought us into this wilderness to starve us all to death.”

How quickly ….just one month later ….do my children forget that they were slaves, mistreated and beaten by the Egyptians, forced to do impossible labor, at one time having their male infants killed by their slave owners. They did not want inconvenience, did not want to give up what they thought they had, did not want to suffer hardship for their freedom, for the liberty to live and worship as my children. So like your people today. You complain about losing your freedom. You complain about the evil in government and big companies. You complain about inflation, taxes and all the other ways you are bled dry. But, you do nothing. You are not willing to do what it will take to change this. Really change all of this. Will you give up your luxuries? Will you do without? Will you do whatever it takes the break the back of those who have a stranglehold on your lives?  Will you experience want? Inconvenience? Pain? Or will you continue to complain, whine and moan and ask me why I am not helping you? I will help you. But you have to do the footwork. Time is running out. You are losing ground daily and almost have reached the point of no return. Will you get up and act?
