“Truth is, I think, if God just gave us our daily bread, many of us would be angry. ‘That’s all you’re going to give me. You’re just going to give me enough to sustain me for today? What about tomorrow or next year or 10, 20, 30 years from now? I want to know that I’m set up.’ And yet Jesus says just pray for your daily provisions.” ~ Francis Chan ~

Julia Child had a good comment on bread. She was such a great cook.

Your quote by Chan above is, I think, one of the real keys to the Christian's life, but so few understand it. We're asked to trust God for tomorrow, all of it, and think only of today. And yet … the same Jesus who told us to ask for bread for today only, also told us we would never hunger or thirst — never, ever — if we believe in him. So there's a guarantee for all the tomorrows too, which is just so odd. Thanks for all this.

Hi Sandra, I like all your quotes and Scripture that you have shared. It really made me smile to stop by. We have had non stop rain and cold weather. We need the moisture but it is very cold. It is good to see you here. Have a wonderful week and I have enjoyed stopping by.Take care.
