Manna

Our home in Indiana, PA
"But now we are dried up, and there is nothing at all before us except this manna!" Numbers 11:6


It is easy to take if for granted and not appreciate what you have. In a time of what could have been famine, the Hebrews complained about God's persistent provision of manna.

And so I can remember thinking in early March, "Will this winter ever end?" (and it had been a mild winter). And now winter is a distant memory, hidden by the explosive flourishing of springtime. But can we remember God's provision is with his people no matter what the season is. Because spring is about to meld into summer, then summer into autumn, and it will be winter again.

But God will be here the whole time. Appreciate the manna, look at his blessings in season and out of season. They are always there.....
