From your heavenly abode, you drop water on the mountains. The run-off makes the earth fruitful. It's all your doing, God!
JOHN 6:12-13 (CEV)
The people ate all they wanted, and Jesus told his disciples to gather up the leftovers so that nothing would be wasted. The disciples gathered them up and filled twelve large baskets with what was left over from the five barley loaves.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is the source of the abundance we all experience.
DAILY FODDER
What, if anything, do you have that can't be traced back to God?
PRAYER
Generous God, everything I have can be traced back to your generosity. Forgive me for my stingy attitude when sharing what I have with others. So saturate my thinking with your gifts that I can't help but respond out of the abundance that has been shared with me. I want to become a part of your divine distribution system. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
