Everything in creation is goodwhich God has given us: food,shelter,music,recreation,family,love,sex,friendship etc BUT they will never fully,completely,perfectly and constantly satisfy us. Only God and God alone could,can and does---these things are meaningless distractions(the Lord knows how many cases they serve as guideposts to a eternity in hell) lacking definition,meaning,hedges(from going beyond its God given and God ordained boundaries from idolatry to sin,to pride where these blessings from God we claim come as our result of our sweat,wisdom and talent) and sustenance.
Give us this day our daily bread,(matt 6:11)
But He answered and said, "It is written, ' MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.'"(MATT 4:4)
33For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." 34They said to him, "Sir, give us this bread always."
35Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst (john 6:33-35)
35Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst (john 6:33-35)
