First Cary UMC's First Sanctuary Sermon – Rev. Ben Alexander – December 14, 2025 Scripture: Exodus 16:13-21 Not long after the Israelites had been delivered from slavery in Egypt, their stomachs began to rumble and they began to grumble for food. God graces them with Manna, a provision that is only good on the day it is collected. To be unhurried is to recognize the grace before us and to stifle our propensity to try to control God’s future.
