DEUTERONOMY 6:11-12 (ABP)
But once you've eaten as much as you want, be careful so that you don't forget the Lord.
JOHN 6:32 (MSG)
Jesus responded, “The real significance of that Scripture is not that Moses gave you bread from heaven but that my Father is right now offering you bread from heaven, the real bread...”
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Remember the God behind the bread.
DAILY FODDER
Why is it that once we have everything we need, our conversations with God become fewer and further between? How do we fix that?
PRAYER
Master Baker, thank you for filling my stomach, indeed my life, with all that I need. How is it, though, that once I'm full I forget about your role in my life. Save me from slipping into a mindless autopilot mode. Keep me mindful and aware, even on autopilot. I'm going to continually celebrate the Bread from Heaven. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
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.
