My Daily Meditation For The Circling Year by John Henry Jowett

SEPTEMBER The Twenty-eighth THE DAILY MANNA

|I will rain bread from heaven for you.|
-- EXODUS xvi.11-18.

And this gracious provision is made for people who are complaining, and who are sighing for the flesh-pots of Egypt! Our Lord can be patient with the impatient: He can be |kind to the unthankful.| If it were easy to drive the Lord away I should have succeeded long ago. I have murmured, I have sulked, I have turned Him out of my thoughts, and |He stands at the door and knocks!| I yearn for |the flesh-pots,| |He sends me manna,| |Was there ever kindest shepherd half so gentle, half so sweet?|

|And they gathered it every morning.| And that I think is the best time to gather the heavenly food. At night I am weary, my body is craving sleep, and I am not vitalized in the fields of grace. But in the morning I am refreshed, and I can go to the heavenly fields and gather |the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.| I can be fed as the day begins, and I can set out to my daily work with the taste of God in my mouth, and His mighty grace in my heart, and I shall delight to |walk in the paths of His commandments.|
