The story of Exodus 16 isn’t just about manna in the desert; it’s a picture of God’s heart to provide for His people. When Israel grumbled in the wilderness, God didn’t respond with punishment but with provision, reminding them that His care is constant even when our trust wavers. Just as He fed them daily, God still invites us to depend on Him one day at a time, to be grateful, generous, and content in what He gives. The manna was never about the meal; it was about the Maker. And in Jesus, the Bread of Life, we find the ultimate provision that satisfies every hunger and fills every empty place with His presence.
