More than bread

After Matthew 6:11

Bread is basic

but more is required

to live a day, one day,

daily. Bread is

sustenance, it is

health, it is provision,

it is love, it is life,

it is work, it is all

the things we need

to live a day, not

the things we want.

And to ask for it is

also a a metaphor.

a symbol of dependence

upon the source who

provides the bread,

daily.
