Here is a happy little girl with the baby chicks perched on her shoulder and arm, and climbing over her lap after some food. The birds in the window above, too, are hoping for some of the slice of bread that looks so good.
The animals get hungry just the same as you and I do, and we ought to do all we can to see that they have plenty of food. Let us think about the birds too, and put food where they will find it.
Our fathers and mothers work hard to earn money for our food and clothes. Day after day they labor for it. When Jesus was here He said,
While in this world we have to have food, but we are here for only a few short years, and then what? Bread, milk, meat, vegetables, and fruit are food for our earthly bodies to keep us alive, but we need another kind of food for everlasting life.
Then Jesus explained to His disciples what He meant by the “meat that endureth unto everlasting’ life.” He said.
Dear reader, have you come to Jesus? Have you found in Him the Bread of life for your soul?
