12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,  the people he chose for his inheritance.

Psalm 33:12–22

13 From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind; 14 from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth— 15 he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.

Psalm 33:12–22

16 No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. 17 A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.

18 But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,  on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, 19 to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.

Psalm 33:12–22

20 We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. 21 In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.

22 May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord,  even as we put our hope in you.

Reasons For Discontentment

Romans 8:20-21

20 “For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, 21 in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from is bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God."

Exodus 15:23-24

“When they came to Marrah, they could not drink the water because it was bitter…And the people complained against Moses, saying, ‘What shall we drink?’”

Exodus 16:2-3 2 “In the desert the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron. 3 The Israelites said to them, ‘If only we had died by the Lord’s hand in Egypt! There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.’”

Numbers 11:4-6 4 “The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, ‘If only we had meat to eat!

We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost—also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic. 6 But now we have lost our appetite; we never see anything but this manna!’”

Numbers 11:19-20

19 “You shall eat it not only for one day, or two days, or five days, or ten days, or twenty days, 20 but for a whole month – until it comes out of your nostrils and becomes loathsome to you.”

“Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.

2 Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.”
