A Daily Supply
Man: Ohhh, I’m stuffed!
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: We eat and get full, but then a funny thing happens the next day.
Man: Ohhh, I’m so hungry!
Nancy: Our bodies need food every day. When God provided manna in the desert, He told the children of Israel, “I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people will go out and gather a day’s portion every day.”
Each person had to gather his own manna, and he couldn’t save any overnight, except the day before the Sabbath. Collecting the bread was a daily thing.
That’s a picture of our relationship with the Word of God. Just like our bodies, our souls require daily food. I cannot become the woman God wants me to be if I’m not spending time in His Word each day. Yesterday’s nourishment isn’t good enough. I need a fresh taste today.
When is the last time you filled up on the Word of God?
With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth.
