A Heart That Never Talks to God


The heart that never talks to God is the heart that trusts in itself and not in the power of God  - Kevin DeYoung's The Good News We Almost Forgot

What does the fourth request in the Lord's Prayer mean?

"Give us today our daily bread" means, 

  • Do take care of all our physical needs so that we come to know 
  • that You are the only source of everything good,
  • and that neither our work and worry nor Your gifts can do us any good without Your blessings. 
  • And so help us to give up our trust in creatures and to put trust in You alone.

Psalm 145:15,16 

  • The eyes of all look to thee, and you give them their food in due season. 
  • You open your hand, you satisfy the desire of every living thing. 
Proverbs 30:8 

  • Give me neither poverty nor riches; 
  • feed me with the food that is needful for me.
Matthew 6:25, 33 

  • I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, 
  • what you shall eat or what you shall drink ... 
  • but seek first His Kingdom ... 
  • and all these things will be yours as well. 
James 1:17 

  • Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, 
  • coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
