The Bread From Heaven

God's people were in real need. The supplies of grain they brought with them from Egypt were almost exhausted, and they were in the wilderness. God wonderfully supplied them with bread: It came from heaven, freely offered life to all who would eat, was to be depended upon daily, was unlike any other, was offered for a household, had to be personally appropriated, was crushed, beaten and baked, was rejected by many. Jesus said, 'I am the true bread from heaven.'
