i have to admit something …. i had said the “Lord’s Prayer” for a good 20 years by rote … don’t get me wrong … i truly meant every word, but, it wasn’t until we were teaching a series on it with the kids and breaking it down, when, just like God does in my life (‘cause I really, really need life’s highlighter to get stuff!) I happened to be reading Exodus in my personal bible study then WHAM … it hit me … like manna in the face … (see what I did there!) … not only does the God of the universe care enough to create the universe and juggle the big things but, He also provides our DAILY bread … He then sent His Son down to emphasize this fact (big time!) … next time you read or say the Lords Prayer (hint, it’s one of the readings, and in King James just for effect 😊 ) … think about the daily bread … then, next time your getting your gluten fix (for those that are gluten free, maybe your cauliflower fix?) … think of your Savior … now, how often do we break bread (think food here, not just bread) … now, if we’re thinking about our Savior each time we do that, it would DEFINITENLY lead to attitude adjustments, which, in turn, could, just maybe, make this little ball, just maybe, a little bit more like, dare i say, Heaven (hmmm … that sounds a LOT like another line in that prayer … just sayin’!) … just a thought from a guy that started looking at his daily bread a WHOLE lot differently and decided to quit “loafing” (ha!) around and spread (ha!) the word …
