Deut 8:3

This was mention by one of the guest speaker at the SMBC Preaching Conference. It's something I try and do when I preach, especially at Youth Group.

Notice the movements in verse 3.
God caused them to go hungry.
Then He feed them.
So that they might realise that man does not live on bread but the Word of God.

There are things we want that we don't have.
We then get them, only to realise... that wasn't what we really need.

We need the Word of God

Last week I went to this conference.
It was excellent, the speakers were great.
It was also good to see people from college & talk to them about what they are up to.

Looking forward to preaching the Psalms later this year.

I caught with friends & family.
And visited the church I grew up in.

It was a refreshing week in sunny Sydney.
