What do you do when you find yourself in a place you don't like? Numbers 9-12

Numbers 11:11-15

So Moses said to the Lord, “Why have You been so hard on Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid the burden of all this people on me? Was it I who conceived all this people? Was it I who brought them forth, that You should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which You swore to their fathers’? Where am I to get meat to give to all this people? For they weep before me, saying, ‘Give us meat that we may eat!’ I alone am not able to carry all this people, because it is too burdensome for me. So if You are going to deal thus with me, please kill me at once, if I have found favor in Your sight, and do not let me see my wretchedness.”

Sounds like me about my "career" and complaining I am not in the "ministry."   For years I have complained about the place God has placed me in His service and I sound just like Moses and these people; complaining about my "lot" in life.   The odd aspect of this portion of the story is that in Moses' words about how the people are complaining to him about having no meat to eat, he, in turn, complains to God about the role he has to play in this plan. If it were not for His abundant grace, God would have destroyed them all; He would destroy me.   WE all need to accept the role and life God has given us.  He does not make mistakes.  We ought not fear what He has us doing, the role playing, or the place serving.  We ought to only fear that we don't do it according to His Word.   Later in this same chapter Moses' brother Aaron and his wife will complain that Moses gets to be the boss.    God will strike them.    God wants us to faithfully follow Him ... not according to our desires, but according to His plan.   He will give us to eat what we need and He desires to give us; He will give us the positions He desires to give us; He will put in charge whom He will put in charge.   We are only to submit to His leadership and follow His plan for our lives and rejoice.    God is most glorified in me as I am most satisfied in Him.
