“However, some of them paid no attention to Moses; they kept part of it until morning, but it was full of maggots and began to smell. So Moses was angry with them.”
Exodus 16:20 NIVI'm in a group that is reading through the Bible and one member pointed out that there are always people who think the rules don't apply to them. I agree there are always those people but the truth is we all at some time are "those people." It may not apply to some things, but there are certain things in all of our lives where we too believe the rules don't apply to us. However, when it comes to the things of God, when we disobey eventually everything will go bad, everything will spoil and stink.
We may get angry at others when they do their version of disobedience but we need to ask ourselves, where are we failing. We need to ask ourselves in reference to Jesus' command (Matthew 7:5), "Where is our log/sin?"
