Every word in the Bible is food for our daily life. No matter how many times we read passages, they seem to take on new meaning that applies immediately. However, there are times when understanding eludes us. In those times, dialogue with someone else enhances our understanding. I have found that studying God's Word is most enjoyable and complete when there is an opportunity to share with others. The Sustenance of Life draws attention to the wonderful things we receive from God that sustain us from day to day and through the trials, frustrations, anxieties and challenges that attempt to turn us from Him. Regardless of your circumstances, God is always near to carry you through them. He is the only one who can provide the sustenance we need for a full and joyous life. Feed on His Word and you shall not want. We have assurance of that in Jesus own words captured by the Apostle John, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." (John 6:35 NIV).
