A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 1 is found in chapter 20 of Numbers. Miriam dies at Kadesh, and shortly afterward the people again complain about the lack of water. God commands Moses to speak to the rock, but Moses strikes it twice. Although water comes forth, God declares that Moses and Aaron will not bring the community into the land. The episode highlights the special responsibility of leaders and shows that an apparently effective response does not make an action obedient when it violates the command received.
