Catching Fish! Miracles??? God promises Abraham that if in daily life he follows God's commands then his daily needs will be met. This isn't magic, it's science. Those not conforming to God's Will (eg Adam and Eve) perform wrong action which results in suffering. Is wealth and children worth the experience of suffering? Only if you don't believe deep in the core of your being that the covenant is science. The children of Israel knew that suffering was not worth the life of comparative wealth they lived on the slavery of sinful daily lives, so they responded to Moses's call to remounce their sinful ways and live simple lives in accordance to the agreement between Abraham and God. But lack of real faith led them to return to the life of bondage in surrender to their addictions as their abandonment of God's way resulted in loss of the pilgrim's path. And so it is to this day, the Church talks about miracles when it should be explaining science. In their hearts no-one believed in miracles so they remain in bondage to earthly desires
