As you consider Paul’s letter to the Philippians and seek to apply it to our current circumstances, what good fruit should we see as we repent and grow in faith during this trial? This shouldn’t be a private endeavor, so share with someone (from 6 feet away or by zoom of course!) how the Lord is deepening your joy as he makes your more like Christ during this trial!

In these anxious days people are looking everywhere for hope. God’s provision may look drastically different than the provision that we imagine, but His provision is far better. Jesus is the bread of life; he is the bread that came to us from heaven. When we eat this bread, we will live forever. No pandemic can change this truth and no physical bread can meet the eternal need that Jesus meets.
