From too much water to no water, Israel keeps having water problems. Three days after the Red Sea opened for them to pass through, they found no water. Supplies likely dwindled, setting them up for a test at Marah.
Finally, they see water, but it's bitter. Instead of asking Moses or praying to God for water, they murmured against Moses. God looked at the situation and found it had everything they needed.
We shake our heads at their unbelief, but what do we see in our lives? How do we react when we need a job, money to pay a bill, or a promotion at work? It seems the answer may be on the horizon, but it doesn't work out. Do we become disillusioned, embittered instead of being patient and enduring.
What did God use to meet their need? He used what they had - bitter water and a tree. All through scripture we see this happening. Jesus used the boy's lunch to feed a multitude. God multiplied the oil of a widow to free her from debt and provide for her and her sons.
