God Reminds us that He is Our Provider

One of our members felt God gave them a picture on December 5:

They saw a large skeleton of a cow lying on the ground.  The cow had big horns as if it had been powerful, but the bones were now very dry.  God said, 'This skeleton is made up of the people who have brought their skills here to serve me.'

As they watched people came and put their hands inside the dried out skeleton and brought out choice pieces of meat to eat.  The meat was inside the skeleton but not visible from outside and not attached to the skeleton.

God said 'I provide the food for my people. It is me and not anything that you do.'

There was no sense of criticism.  God was simply reminding us that he is the sovereign God.  We can provide a helpful place for His people to come and meet with Him, but it is God who provides the spiritual food His people need.

We need to continue to seek the face and the favour of our loving Heavenly Father who knows all of our needs.
