Manna from Heaven
Lately I've been feeling like the sky is falling. Then I read a passage from one of my favorite writers. She quoted a verse from Psalm 78:
"God commanded the skies above, and . . . he rained down on them manna to eat."
The writer said when it feels like the sky is falling, maybe it's God providing us with nourishment.
Love that.

I love "Secret Lives of Bees" by Sue Monk Kidd! And I thought of you, Jenny, when I read this article: http://www.writersweekly.com/this_weeks_article/003895_02142007.html

Good for you for recognizing it. Take the provision for the gift that it is. (Did you know that the word "manna" actually means, "what is it"?)

Perfect comment for me this month. Is it OK to tell God when you are full?
