Our Living Bread


Matthew 6: 11
Give us this day our daily bread.

Jesus has set a perfect example before us showing us how to pray. HE taught the disciples to pray in a God centered manner. One of the lines in the prayer goes like this - Give us this day our Daily bread; requesting God to provide for us and to satisfy us, whenever we are in need - Be it a physical need, an emotional need or spiritual need. Jesus is our bread and is our divine manna, which can fill us completely and provide us emotional and spiritual peace and happiness. Whatever we may be in need of today, a peace of mind, a life of joy and satisfaction, a spiritual contentment - let us simply ask HIM, and God will give it to us, if it is appropriate and if it is the right time. Although God knows What we need, God expects that we ask HIM to help us in our need to satisfy us with HIS providence. God expects us to look upon HIM and not go after other things or people, with an attempt to get our needs met.
         So, let us simply turn our eyes to Jesus alone and present our requests to HIM and God will gladly satisfy us - for HE is the divine Manna who can satisfy the hunger of the world and the living water who can quench the thirst of all.
