"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Daily Bread

I have been thinking today about the importance of going to God each morning for our daily bread or manna. There are some days, when it is easy to remember that, and perhaps others when we forget. With the Christmas holidays quickly approaching, it is easy to get tied up in all the things that need to get accomplished in the next couple weeks - cookies to bake, presents to buy and wrap, decorating to do, etc.

As we approach the celebration of the birth of our Savior, it is even more important to take time each day and ask Him for our daily portion. My prayer is that I won't get wrapped up in the busyness of the season, but instead carve time with Jesus each day. How are you doing with your daily bread? Has it been a while since you have feasted on God's Word? He is just waiting for you to meet with Him!
