 John 6:32-35 (NRSV)
" Then Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." They said to him, "Sir, give us this bread always." Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty."
 COME AND GET IT!!!!...TIME TO EAT!
 
In the Old Testament, every day God miraculously supplied daily food for the Israelites while they wandered in the wilderness.  Since it came from the sky, and the people hadn't seen anything like it, they called it manna, which is translated, "What is it?"  The savory substance lasted only one day, so it couldn't be stored for future use.  The people had to depend on God daily for their food.
 
In a spiritual sense, we need fresh bread daily.  The Bible is available 24 hours a day to give us hope, guidance, comfort, and peace.  We can depend on God's word to give us guidance for our current needs and situations. How often do we say, this is my private time with my husband or wife, or with my children or important business, or just to lay down awhile and I refuse to be disturbed? The answering machine gets set on the phone, we turn the ringer off; we won't answer the doorbell, and we get upset with any interruptions right? Because we NEED that special time to fulfill our NEEDS, right? But do we do that with our prayer time? Do we do that
when we are studying the Word?
 
I take time first thing in the morning to read the Bible, to look for personal applications from scripture, and to pray.That's my breakfast.
 I ask God to lead me throughout the day.  Later in the day,I take time again for lunch in the Word, and also dinner. And of course I just
have to have that late night snack before bed.
Then I can live confidently, trusting that God's wisdom and guidance
 will be sufficient for my needs.
Thought from Linda...Praise God that He doesn't allow our physical
body to die if we fail to feed the spirit man daily or I'm afraid
there'd be a whole lot of statistics.
My very favorite food is the word of God,I crave it!!
Thank-you Lord for giving me that hunger.Praise you Lord!!
Prayer:  Dear God, help us never to be satisfied with anything
but fresh spiritual food from you daily.  Amen.
