What Daily Bread Really Means

“Give us this day our daily bread.” These seven words from the Lord’s Prayer are so familiar that we can easily miss how radical they are. When Jesus taught His disciples to pray in Matthew 6:11, He invited them to trust God for provision—not all at once, but one day at a time. In a world obsessed with tomorrow, this simple request calls us back to dependence, humility, and trust in God’s care today.
