Stewardship Blessings “No longer was there manna for the Israelites, who that year ate of the yield of the land of Canaan.” (JOSHUA 5:12) Over the forty years that the Israelites journeyed through the desert, God provided them with manna to eat. As soon as they were able to enjoy the fruits of the Promised Land the manna ceased. Likewise, God’s blessings to us as His Stewards may change over the years but it is important to trust that God will always provide us with all that we need. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
