Indeed baking bread is a satisfying thing, and your observation about what is wrong with wanting it on our own terms is right on. I'm planning to quote you; well said. Yea, Sarah!

He knows my weakness and my need to be in control of any given situation. I need to remember to serve God only and be still and trust. Thank you for your insight.

I too love making bread. I have used the kneading time to pray for others and lift them up to God. Kneading time is my quiet time with God. I then give a loaf away to someone and let them know I was thinking of them. Thanks Sarah. I too love making bread. I have used the kneading time to pray for others and lift them up to God.

Often times, we are led astray by earthly things that we believe define us as individuals. We so commonly forget that if we trust in the Lord, He will provide for us. This passage reminds us of how much we should trust in the Lord, no matter how tough life is. He will never give us more than we can handle but we must also be willing to help ourselves and not expect God to do all of the work. This is a great passage.
