Excerpts from Our Daily Bread

FOOD FOR THE HUNGRY

For vears, the Horn of Africa has suffered from a brutal drought that has devastated crops, killed livestock, and imperiled millions. Among the most vulnerable--like the people at Kenya's

Vakuma Refugee Camp who've fled from wars and oppression-it's even more dire. A recent report described a young mother bringing her baby to camp officials. The infant suffered from severe malnutrition, leaving "her hair and skin... dry and brittle." She wouldn't

smile and wouldn't eat. Her tiny body was shutting down. Specialists

immediately intervened. Thankfully, even though the needs are still great, an infrastructure has been built to provide immediate,

life-or-death necessities.

These desperate places are exactly where God's people are called to shine His light and love (ISAIAH 58:8). When people are starving,

sick, or threatened, God summons His people to be the first to provide food, medicine, and safety-all in Jesus' name. Isaiah rebuked

ancient Israel for thinking they were being faithful with their fasting and prayers while ignoring the actual compassionate work the

crisis required: sharing "food with the hungry" providing "the poor wanderer with shelter," and clothing "the naked" (verse 7).

God desires for the hungry to be fed-both physically and spiritually. And He works in and through us as He meets the need.

Dear God, please help me be part of how You bring food, love, and comfort to those who are hungry and in distress.

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...
