News & Events

Dear friends,

Most of us live as though life were a desert we must cross on our own steam, rationing every drop we carry and eyeing every distant shimmer with suspicion. We assume the real water lies ahead–tomorrow’s provision, next year’s security, the satisfaction we shall earn or accumulate if only we push hard enough.

But the curious thing is that the moment we pause, truly pause, we discover the ground beneath our feet is not as barren as we thought. Beneath the hot sand of our daily fretting, there’s already a spring–small, hidden, but unfailing–bubbling up from a source deeper than our own efforts could ever reach. That spring is God’s daily bread, portioned exactly as we need it, not as we crave it. We are to ask for it not in panic or greed, but in quiet trust: “Give us this day our daily bread.” Contentment begins here–not in having more, but in recognizing what is already given, steady and sufficient, like water rising where we least expected it. Drink, then, and go on. The desert is not empty after all.

In Christ’s love,

Pastor Randy
