THE SPIRITUAL ASPECT – No. 3 - response

As an addition to my last post I include the following excerpt from an email response I have subsequently received. I trust you will find it as helpful as I did.

“If you read the account of Gods provision of Manna in Exodus 16 there is a verse that says, ‘Those who gathered much did not have too much and those who gathered little did not have to little. I get the impression that when the manna fell it did not cover the ground evenly. Thousands and thousands of people trying to gather, it was probably easier for some than for others and so some were able to gather more than others depending on where they found themselves. There was however this amazing grace factor that everyone had enough providing they had gathered. I think it is a picture of our devotional lives and manna is the substance that feeds our spirits. There are times when life does not afford us the time to gather easily but when we are faithful the little is not too little.”
