Life's Bitterness
Homilist
Exodus 15:22-27
So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness…


The wilderness brings out what is within. It also discovers God's goodness and our unworthiness.

I. EARTH'S ROTTENNESS.

1. We must expect bitter pools in a bitter world.

2. Many of us make our own Marahs.

II. HEAVEN'S REMEDY.

1. To the praying man the Lord reveals the remedy.

2. God uses instramentality.

3. God does not always take away the Marah, but drops an ingredient into it to sweeten its bitterness.
