We need ‘a portion for
each day... all the days of our life’ (Jeremiah 52:34). When, Lord. we
pray, ‘Give us this day our daily bread’, teach us to look beyond our
physical need for food. May we remember our spiritual need for ‘the
Bread of life’: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word of
God’ (Matthew 6:11; John 6:35; Luke 4:4). Teach us, day-by day, to pray
for spiritual feeding: ‘Break Thou the Bread of life, dear Lord, to me,
as Thou didst break the bread beside the sea. Beyond the sacred page I
seek Thee, Lord. My spirit longs for Thee, Thou living Word! Thou art
the Bread of life, O Lord, to me, Thy holy Word the truth that saveth
me. Give me to eat and live with Thee above. Teach me to love Thy truth,
for Thou art love.’
