31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
Two verses for you today. During the 40 yrs the children of Israel journeyed in the wilderness, God fed them manna from Heaven. That manna was a type of Jesus, the Bread from Heaven.
The people were to gather fresh manna every day except on the Sabbath. Each day they were to gather only enough for that day. If they tried to gather more it would spoil. That tells us that we should gather fresh manna from Heaven every morning. What a good example: If we don 't come into the Father's presence for fresh blessings each day, our spiritual life will grow stale or spoil.
Jesus is ready to give us bread from Heaven each day. He knows what we need, and He is ready to supply that need. After the disciples had fished all night and caught nothing, Jesus met them on the shore in the morning with bread and fish prepared for them. He knew that they were tired, discouraged, and hungry, and He met their need. Just so, He knows what we need and HE is ready and able to supply that need. But we must dive into His word for each and every blessing.
I loved Jana's thought: If we were put on trial today, would there be enough evidence to convict us of being a Christian? HMMM pondering that myself.
Hugs prayers and God bless
