LIVING IN FAITH: Daily Bread



Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
Amen.


I love the model prayer. I remember memorizing it as a child, and reciting it before bed most every night. It wasn't until I was more mature into my faith that I learned my prayers needed to be more, and that the model prayer was more of an outline on how one should pray.

As I am raising 2 little believers I am teaching them the model prayer. I am building up their prayer life and giving them a biblical foundation. And what I love even more is that I have an application of God's provision from this prayer.

Give us this day our daily bread.

At the end of April I received an email from Panera letting me know that in the month of May I would receive a free bagel every day. This has been a beautiful blessing in that it has been free breakfast for me. And since things are a little tight financially currently I see it as a blessing from God. He has literally provided for us, for me, daily bread.
