God Provides

My good friend Brandon Whitworth sent me this email and I wanted to pass it along. I hope you enjoy and thanks again Brandon.

Saw your blog on the fact that your Sunday school class studying the book of Exodus, so I thought I’d pass this along. Don’t know of it’s complete validity but with 3,000,000 people these stats make sense to me!
Blessings my brother!

Moses in the desert! (And you think God can’t take care of you!)
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, this is what all Moses would have to do:

1. 1500 tons of food each day - That’s two freight trains, each at least a mile long

2. 4000 tons of wood for cooking - 2more freight trains, each a mile long, just for one day.

3. 11,000,000 gallons of water each day - This would take a freight train with tank cars, almost 20 miles long, just to bring water!

4. And then another thing! They had to get across the Red Sea at night. Now, if they went on a narrow path, double file, the line would be 800 miles long and would require 35 days and nights getting through. So there had to be a space in the Red Sea, 3 miles wide so that they could walk 5000 abreast to get over in one night.

5. But then, there is another problem...............each time they camped at the end of the day, a campground two-thirds the size of the state of Rhode Island was required, or a total of 750 square miles long........ Think of it! This much space 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 your needs?

Have a Blessed Day!!!
