Moses heard all the people complaining as they stood around in groups at the entrances of their tents. He was distressed because the LORD had become angry with them, and he said to the LORD, "Why have you treated me so badly? Why are you displeased with me? Why have you given me the responsibility for all these people? I didn't create them or bring them to birth! Why should you ask me to act like a nurse and carry them in my arms like babies all the way to the land you promised to their ancestors? Where could I get enough meat for all these people? They keep whining and asking for meat. I can't be responsible for all these people by myself; it's too much for me! If you are going to treat me like this, have pity on me and kill me, so that I won't have to endure your cruelty any longer."

Numbers 11:10-15

Do you ever find yourself becoming apathetic with all the blessings God showers on you each day? Don't take them for granted. Remember to thank God for your daily manna: life and strength, and the countless good things He provides each day.

The reality is simple: It is NOT all about "Me."
