#168 Prayer & Charity
I saw one of my Facebook friends share a photo that crossed out “pray” in “pray for Oklahoma” and instead said “donate and volunteer.” Yes, prayer may seem like a superficial display of solidarity. After all, how can my words of wishes help someone who’s in need? Granted, prayer in essence reminds us to be thankful of our own circumstances and have compassion towards the less fortunate. A call to prayer is not a superficial display of solidarity but rather a call to self-empowerment. Through prayer, one finds ways to donate and to volunteer. It is through prayer that I can move from unstable emotions of pity to more stable emotions of empathy and solidarity. I do not have to open my bank statements to tell you that research shows religious people are more likely to give money to charity.

#167 Like Israel
Like Israel, I thirst when the oasis is around the corner because I keep looking to the past (Exodus 15:22-27).
Like Israel, I complain about empty stomach, although my thirst has just been miraculously quenched (Exodus 16:2-3).
Like Israel, I rebel by storing up today’s portion for tomorrow, for I cannot trust that God will again be faithful tomorrow (Exodus 16:19-21).
Like Israel, I remain stubborn by going out to the wilderness to claim what I feel entitled to, even though I deserve nothing (Exodus 16:27).
Like Israel, I do not rest in God since I prefer to rest in assurance of worldly things (Exodus 16:29-30).
BUT, God has placed the manna of His promise in my jar so that like Israel I may be reminded of His grace and mercy throughout my days (Exodus 16:33).
Like Israel, He WILL call me out of wilderness (Exodus 16:35).
Like Israel, He WILL come in haste to rescue me (Psalm 70).
