Verse set: Exodus 15:22-26 Israel and the "waters of Marah"§↻

My telling of the Marah Story! :)

“Moses, God, I’m thirsty!” the swarm of Israelites said only three days later, “Please give us water, please!”, “There’s no water left for us to drink!” God said to Moses, “I’ll give them water, but they’re not gonna like it.” A few minutes later, an oasis was there. There was water! They went to drink, and spit the water out of their mouths! It was bitter, if you’ve drank Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar in water without honey, That’s probably what it tastes like. >P. “What is this Marah water? Did we come all this way, just to be thirsty to death?!” God said, “Mo, throw that tree into the water.” Moses: “I can’t lift a whole tree, I’m over eighty!” God: “A Stick!” Moses: “Oh. Even though I’m eighty, I can still lift a stick!” so Moses threw the stick into the water, and it was sweet, another-words normal. God gave them a test. Marah was a test. And God ended up giving them not 1, not 2, not 3 or 5 or 7 or 10, but 12 Pools of water and 70 Palm trees in a place called Elim. God still loved them.
