Daily Lesson for May 17, 2022

 Today’s Daily Lesson comes from Matthew chapter 6 verse 11:


“Give us this day our daily bread.”


In the book of Proverbs it says, “Give me neither poverty nor riches, but feed me with the food I need.”


I am praying for enough. 


Too much and we become arrogant and no longer live on faith. 


Too little and, of course, we can’t make the ends meet. That is the worry and the reason we have taught ourselves that it is okay to have more than we need.


The disciple of praying for one’s daily bread keeps things in balance. It also keeps us humble and trusting in the Lord and not in our own selves. 


Pray for daily bread today:


Bread for the table.


Bread for the pocket. 


Bread for the mind. 


Bread for the soul. 


Bread for our cities, schools, and governments. 


Bread for our churches. 


Bread for the journey.
