Manna

Manna everyday.  Finally the people started to complain.  They longed for leeks, garlic and other such foods that Egypt had to offer instead of the food of angels.  They became ungrateful.  Moses reminds the people in Deuteronomy 8 to be a grateful people.  They were given food that they didn't have to labour for.  Their clothes did not wear out neither did their shoes.  They were ungrateful.
The Word of God is heaven's food for our souls and yet we long for something more.  We want the leeks and garlic that the world offers instead of the Word of God.  We are an ungrateful people.
