10 mins a day, closer to God.
This verse reflects God’s loving provision for His people, even during times of struggle and need. God humbled the Israelites by allowing them to experience hunger, teaching them dependence on His grace alone. By providing manna, a miraculous food unknown to them, He demonstrated that He is both provider and sustainer. This verse reminds us that God often allows us to go through periods of lack to draw us closer to Him and to show us that true sustenance comes from His hand alone. It’s a call to trust in God’s timing and provision, even when we cannot see the way forward. When we are tempted to rely on our own strength, this verse challenges us to remember that God alone can truly satisfy our deepest needs. Just as He provided for the Israelites, He will also provide for us, often in unexpected ways that deepen our faith and reliance on Him. Through humility and trust, we come to know God as our faithful provider.
