After three days of walking through the desert, when they finally found water, it turned out to be bitter. This is how the sermon about Israel begins: shortly after their miraculous crossing of the sea, they find themselves in the desert and discover that their real problem is not a lack of water or bread, but a lack of trust. God sends manna for only one day and forbids them from storing it, because He is not concerned with the stomach, but with the heart, which He is reshaping. The speaker adds his own story: the morning when he ran out of money for a loaf of bread, and his cousin returning from the night shift at the bakery, who that day, for no reason, took two. Listen, if your tomorrow looks like a desert today.

But God Himself-the One who liberates, teaches, guides, and gives a new identity to all who are lost-once again stepped into their story.
The book of Exodus lies ahead of us.
