“BEANS AND BREAD!”
Philippians 4:19
“But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
It was a sunny Sunday afternoon in Amarillo, Texas. I was a low-ranking airman attending jet mechanic school. I say that to explain why we had run out of money before we ran out of month. We were broke!
Entering our apartment that Sunday afternoon, we were well aware that there was very little in the house to eat -- a can of green beans, part of a loaf of bread, and a little milk. We decided to make a gravy to put on the bread. It was then that we discovered the milk had “turned’ and was not fit to use. We ate beans and bread and thanked the Lord for it!
That evening after church we were thrilled to be invited out to a lovely couple’s home for a snack. I fear we were quite aggressive in devouring the food. When we told them the story of our noon meal they laughed and laughed. What we did not know was that they owned a small grocery store. We were graciously invited to come to the store and open a charge account until payday. Yeah!
The Lord has invited us to come to Him and that He will supply all of our needs. We may go through times of spiritual leanness because we fail to draw upon His bountiful supply. We dine on spiritual "beans and bread" when we could be dining at His table loaded with love, grace, and truth. Dig In!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
