"No one is to keep any of it (manna) until the morning,"(Exodus 16:19). Verse 20 informs us that "some of them paid no attention" and "they kept part of it until morning, but it was full of maggots and began to spoil." They had been told how much to gather and what they gathered would be enough. "He who gathered much did not have too much, and he who gathered little did not have too little," (Verse 18). God's daily care was perfect - exactly what was needed. That was the physical bread from heaven.
Jesus - perfect - exactly what we need for everyday living one day at a time. He is sufficient. What more do we need? He came at exactly the right time and exactly the right place for exactly the right reason to obtain the right results.
Now, where our comparison with manna breaks down is that you can't get enough of Jesus. As a matter of fact "spoilage" occurs when we limit our intake of Jesus. Our life turns grey and smelly when Jesus is not a part of it.
Have you had your healthly helping of the spiritual bread of life today? Take it all in! Don't live one moment without Him!
Be Strong and Courageous,
L.T.
