Give Us – implies we cannot get the bread on our own, otherwise we would. We are dependent on God for our daily sustenance.
This Day – implies we need God's sustenance every day. It implies don't eat at night! Our bodies need to rest from eating and our spirits need to be restored through stillness. ;)
Our Daily Bread – is fresh bread that we receive through God's Word, Jesus, who is the Living Word and the Bread of Life. To receive nourishment from the bread, the dough is first mixed or anointed with oil from the Holy Spirit. Salt is added for flavor and then heat is applied for the purification of our faith. Then, enjoy!
