(ESV)\n\n Each morning when we arise, we give thanks to God for\n protecting us during the night. We also ask Him to be with us\n during to day to guide us in all we do. Many people recite the\n prayer Jesus gave His disciples, asking, ``Give us this day our\n daily bread.'' God provides for our needs, and He expects us to\n be good stewards of the gifts He provides.\n\n And when they had eaten their fill, he told his\n disciples, ``Gather up the leftover fragments, that\n nothing may be lost.'' So they gathered them up and\n filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five\n barley loaves, left by those who had eaten.\n\n\n How do we handle the gifts which God gives? Are we willing\n to share with others, to be the hands through which our Lord\n provides clothing and shelter and food to our neighbors and those\n in need? Are we willing to look at the abundance of His gifts\n and preserve them for our future use? Jesus' simple request says\n that our Lord expects us to act wisely with those things\n entrusted to us, be it food or clothing or money.\n\n In faith we accept God's gracious gifts and use them for our\n benefit and for the good of others. This is especially true of\n the gift of faith, the peace which we receive from knowing that\n our sins are forgiven. We speak of this gift of salvation,\n sharing it with those who do not know the love of God, who worry\n about their daily bread and their eternal life.\n\n May our Lord grant us wisdom to use His gifts properly and\n to His glory. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"April 3, 2025 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2025"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3112"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3112\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3113,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3112\/revisions\/3113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
