From Deuteronomy 8:3:  “He humbled you by letting you hunger, then by feeding you with manna, with which neither you nor your ancestors were acquainted, in order to make you understand that one does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.”

Life’s darkening journey

Never exempt from pain

Evil always prowling

Adversity’s campaign

 

Seeking life’s foundation

Holy Word, God alone

Heavenly love provides

Troubles no longer groan

 

Praise our Great Comforter

Treasures open, His love

Understanding God’s law

Commandments from above

 

Freed from harsh wilderness

Rejoice with faithful trust

Delighting in God’s love

Filled with hope, life adjusts

 

Depend upon the Lord

Manna nourishing needs

Trials teach bold lessons

His great love always leads

 

From Romans 8:28:  “We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to His purpose.”
