Ummm YEAH. I suspect (ok, ok, I KNOW it) that the very fact that I thought "Hey I'm entitled to the occasional bad attitude at this point in my life!" means the study Pastor Bob chose for our next bible study group is perfect for me. Waahhhhh (sigh) As if life weren't challenging enough right now. Let's go making it a time of growth.
OK, Fine God I get the hint!
Haven't even made it through the Introduction of "Lord Change my Attitude (before it's too late)" and have already had some OUCH moments.
... Alright, I just got hiccups for the 4th time today! Distracting and annoying. ...
Back to the topic: The author paraphrases Numbers 12:26-29 "All the grumblers ... they're going down!" Oh yay! That makes me want to keep reading. I said I got the hint, don't keep slapping me. Grumble and die in the desert? Wander a year for every day you grumbled?
OK, so God doesn't like the grumbling 14:27 How long [shall I bear with] this evil congregation, which murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against me. and I'm guessing even my eye rolling "Oh come on Lord!" counts the same as grumbling.
I'm in TROUBLE!!!
OK, ok, I'm going to go read. I'll be back though. I've got enough desert without making it any worse or longer than it has to be.
