Numbers 10:11-13:16

Numbers 11 has always interested me. The people who are free from slavery start to think it was better back in bondage. I know I do this. I get freed from some thing I used to do and I think back to the days that I did it and wish I could do it again, just one more time. I think about women in abusive relationships and wonder why they go back. God is not pleased with the actions of his Israelite people; he promises them that they will eat quail until they gag. This reminds me of some wise advice my Grandmother told me when I said I wished I could eat a whole half gallon of ice-cream…”Be careful what you wish for”. She was right, I got very sick and I didn’t eat ice-cream for quite a while. What do you wish you could go back to?
