I Get the Israelites

We're studying Exodus in our Thursday night summer study.  Here's my summary so far of the Israelites' journey towards the Promised Land:
God provides freedom from slavery by sending plagues that force Pharaoh to let His people go.
God provides a pillar of cloud by day & fire by night to guide them.
The Israelites see Egyptian soldiers pursuing & react with fear, doubt & grumbling.
God provides safety by parting the Red Sea.
The Israelites get thirsty & react with fear, doubt & grumbling.
God provides fresh water.
The Israelites get hungry & react with fear, doubt & grumbling.
God provides manna, every single day, enough for each person.
The Israelites get tired of manna & react with fear, doubt & grumbling.
God provides quail.
The Israelites arrive at a camp with no water & react with fear, doubt & grumbling.
God provides water (again).
To be continued . . .
