Here is something to
think about next time you have a problem that dims your faith. Try to
figure out the math in this, without God in the equation! It cannot be
done!! Moses and the people were in the desert, but what was he going to
do with them? They had to be fed, and feeding 2 or 3 million people
requires a lot of food. According to the Quartermaster General in the
Army, it is reported that Moses would have to have 1,500 tons of food
each day.
Do you know that to bring that much food each day two freight trains
each a mile long would be required! Besides you must remember, they were
out in the desert, and they would have to have firewood to use in
cooking the food. This would take 4,000 tons of wood and a few more
freight trains, each a mile long, just for one day. Just think, they
were 40 years in transit! Oh, yes, they would have to have water. If
they only had enough to drink and wash a few dishes, it would take 11
million gallons each day. That would require a freight train with tank
cars 1,800 miles long, just to bring water!
Then consider another thing: they had to get across the Red sea in one
night. If they went on a narrow path, double file, the line would be 800
miles long and would require 35 days and nights to get through. So,
there had to be a space in the Red sea, 3 miles wide so that they could
walk 5,000 abreast to get over in one night. Another problem also faced
Moses. Each time they camped at the end of the day, it required a camp
ground about two-thirds the size of the state of Rhode Island, or
a total of 750 square miles long. Think of it! this space had to be
provided each night for camping. Do you think Moses figured all this out
before he left Egypt? I think not! You see, Moses believed in God God
took care of these things for him.
NOW DO YOU THINK GOD HAS ANY PROBLEM TAKING CARE OF ALL. |
