Joshua 5

Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year. v.12

Read chapter 5
The end of the manna.  The whole time they were wondering in the wilderness from Egypt to the promised land of Canaan they ate manna.  40 years of eating the same thing until they entered the land of Canaan and enjoyed it’s produce of the land.  We know they complained in the wilderness about the manna like they were sick of it but I wonder that after having it for forty years if they ever missed it.  Some of my friends were born and raised in another country where they ate rice and beans almost every meal every day but when they came to the USA they enjoyed the food for a time but would always prefer rice and beans on their plate.  That’s what their palate was accustomed to.  Surely too food straight from God has to be pretty darn amazing as I like to call berries I pick off bushes God’s candy.  What is something in your life God provided that you took for granted and missed once it was gone? (Think of an item or a person or a place)
