Dear Family,

Today is Sunday, May 26, 2024. It is Day 29 and Day 1 of Week 5 in our Count to Pentecost.

Exodus 16:4 Then said the LORD unto Moses; Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.

“Rain bread from heaven for you!” Exodus 16 contains a wonderful account that illustrates a unique characteristic of God. He announced that He was about to do something that no one had ever seen or heard of; in fact, perhaps it had never even entered into any person‛s mind.

Who but God would have ever thought of such a thing?

That‛s Who God is! He is the Source. Our imaginations are far short of God‛s creative “genius.” All mankind can do is “change” the raw materials God has already created when we “create.” We can only rearrange, or put together, or manipulate (in numerous ways) the resources God has already provided for us.

Isaiah 55:8-9 (8) For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. (9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.

1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written; Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.

We do not think like He thinks. Aren‛t we glad? God always has something new. And, it is always good.
