"They are bread for us"

"Only rebel not ye against the Lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us."  -Numbers 15:9

What did Caleb mean by that?  Well what happens when you eat bread?  You grow and get stronger.  Caleb was saying, "These difficulties are there to make us grow.  These people are bread for us.  We can take the land.  THese Anakim are just the 'breakfast of champions' for us."  Dear friend, can I tell you that you will never grow until you eat the bread that God sets before you.  Often times that bread is trouble. 

To grow spiritually, you have to have difficulty.  It is part of God's plan to grow you up in Christ. 

God bless.
