“Give us today our daily bread.” Matthew 6:11

God is our provider and he knows what we need. Not only food and water but everything. Just like the sparrow he knows we need certain things to survive and to have a good life. What ever we are concerned about he wants us to run to him. He is not only Jehovah Jirah our provider he is Jehovah Rapha our healer, Jehovah Nissi our banner and protector, Jehovah Shalom our peace, and Jehovah Roha our good shepherd. We may want certain things and God is not a genie just waiting to jump at every request. But he does bless those that are grateful, thankful and whom seek after him with their whole hearts doing what he asks of us in his words. He knows our hearts and our anxious thoughts but he still wants to hear from us. He doesn’t always answer the way we think. His ways are always so much better than ours. Because he knows the beginning from the end. The complete picture and he knows just what will work for each person he creates. He even gives some trials to help us grow stronger. But he will never let you suffer for no good reason and only as long as it takes to accomplish his purposes. But he is there to comfort and help you through hard times. He will give you strength. People we love will all die one day but it can be very hard to let them go. But when you know the Lord it is a blessing to go home to be with God in paradise forever with no more pain or suffering. We can be forever with our loved ones once we get home. I know so many people that have died and are rejoicing in heaven right now and I can’t wait to join them for a great reunion someday soon. I know that I could never make it through this life without my Savior. He is everything to me and his presence is so precious to me. I can’t wait to wake up each morning and say good morning Lord. I like knowing the King of kings is for me and will never leave me or forsake me.
