Daily Bread

Give us this day our daily bread,

Matthew 6:11

Do we pray daily for our needs? And if we do, are we satisfied with the answer? When we pray for our daily bread, what are we really praying for? More than likely we want more than we need. And if we don’t get what we want, we tend to complain, get depressed, feel sorry for our self. Me included. I’m not pointing my fingers at anybody. If I would point my finger at anyone, there are always three more pointing back at me. I don’t come from a wealthy family. But at my lowest, I’ve always had what I needed. I may have been hungry before, but not the dangerous hungry. I didn’t grow up with brand name clothes, but I always had clothes to wear, warm ones at that. I didn’t live in a mansion, but I always had a clean, warm, safe roof over my head. The Christ, the King, the Holy Child of the one and only God had less than I had at my lowest. Personally, I have nothing to complain about, ever. The child of our Holy God was born with the animals. But He was loved, fed, protected, and warm. And He was satisfied.

When we pray to our Holy God to give us our daily bread, let us believe He will. When we keep our eyes on Christ, we will be satisfied and full of Joy. When we take our eyes off of Christ and onto others, we will sink like Peter did and we will be filled with envy and not be satisfied. Let us Pray knowing and believing and keeping our eyes on our Savior, no matter what.
