21: The Lords Prayer: Part 3

"Give us our Food for today."

Many times we think of God as a genie in a bottle who we can make wishes and see our fantasy dreams come true.  But here, Jesus teaches us to ask God to humbly supply all we need for Today.

Yes, we could ask God for a Billion dollars, and then just plan on using that as our supply for the rest of our life, but then, if God did that, we'd have no need to come to Him, and ask for more, until we needed Him again. 

He doesn't want to make life so easy for us, that we no longer have the need to ask Him for anything, or stop coming to Him with our cry for help.

No.

He desires a daily relationship with us.  He wants us to DAILY tell God how much we need Him.

Let's face it, we don't just need His provision for food and drink, money and clothes.  We need him daily to give us our joy, life, passion, grace and mercy.

So, pray daily for him to supply all you need FOR TODAY, and HE WILL!
