Our daily Bread Devotional
THE WORD OF THE LORD IS IN FORM OF THE BREAD, JESUS OFTEN CALLED THE WORD BREAD IN SCRIPTURES, TAKE TODAY’S DAILY BREAD AND LET IT BLESS YOU
TOPIC: A SMALL START
Memory Verse: Micah 5:2
Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small . . . , out of you will come . . . [a] ruler over Israel.
Today’s Scripture & Insight: Micah 5:2–4
The Brooklyn Bridge was considered “the eighth wonder of the world” upon its completion in 1883. But a single, slender wire strung from one bridge tower to the other was essential for the structure to come to fruition. Additional wires were added to the first until a massive cable, along with three others, was woven together. When finished, each cable—composed of more than five thousand galvanized wires—helped support the longest suspension bridge in its day. What started as something small turned into a huge part of the Brooklyn Bridge.
OUR DAILY BREAD TODAY
I was drifting off into an impromptu nap when it hit me. From the basement, my son ripped a chord on his electric guitar. The walls reverberated. No peace. AloNo quiet. No nap. Moments later, competing music greeted my ears: my daughter playing “Amazing Grace” on the piano.

Reflect & Pray
How are your words and actions a representation of your faith in Jesus? As a believer in Him, why are integrity and sincerity vital in your dealings with others?
Dear God, help me to serve others with such a clear conscience that my love for them is evident.
