Grrrrrrumbling!
Exodus 16:11-12
Antidote for grumbling is contentment.
If God could provid meat and manna in the desert for the grumbling Israelites, how much more He would have blessed them if they
were content with the blessings they were enjoying already!
The had already known that the Lord was their God through many miracles like miracles in Egypt, parting of the red sea, turning of the bitter water into sweet drinking water.
But they did not trust God for the food.
Their hearts went back to the Egyptian food, not to the Lord who who rescued them from their slavery.
when I start grumbling about something, I need to remember/contemplate all God's blessings and trust Him more.

Hmmmm.. i tried thinking yesterday!! N i felt to restless to think :) But then somehow i started thinkin . Then i slept off. Every now n then i try, sometimes i fail n i continue grumbling out of fear ,but sometimes the assurance keeps me running for a long time. It's like it gets stored at the back of our heads :)
