FRESH BREAD EVERY MORNING
The scent of fresh, glazed donuts wafts through the windows of our church on Sunday morning. Suddenly, I was hungry for one of those beautiful creations. Hurry up, get through with your sermon, Dad, I thought as I visualized one of those sticky, sweet, luscious glaze donuts in my hand. As far as I was concerned, church couldn't get over soon enough.
All these years later, I can still see that donut shop across the street from the church and smell those fresh morsels of goodness they produce every morning. My buddy and I would stand outside the open door and watch them bake and dip those donuts, just hoping they would have pity on us and give us one.
The moment the spirit of God dropped that thought in my heart today about fresh bread every morning, I was instantly taken back to Long Beach, California, at 1800 E. Anaheim. And that wonderful donut shop.
Three decades later, Arlis and I and our little boy Tony were in Wilmington, California, on a tremendous pastoral team led by my uncle Herbert Ezell.
At the time, he was at the unimaginable age of 60 with a team of young pastors in their 20s and 30s. Pastor Ezell had a hectic schedule, yet He was faithful to be at the church every morning somewhere around 6 o'clock for prayer.
It frustrated us young stallions that we couldn't get ahead of him in those early morning sessions. He always got there first. One day, I asked him how he managed to stay so energized with all the things he was involved in.
He gave me a spiritual nugget I had carried most of my life when he "said daily freshness, George daily freshness."
I believe there's a reason why God gave us 24 hours a day. It provides us with an opportunity to start fresh and new every morning.
The Scriptures tell us that the presence of God and the grace of God are new every morning, also. Sometime later, my apostle and friend Norman Clear told me he stayed in the bedroom on Monday morning after a busy Sunday until his spirit was renewed in the presence of the Lord.
I encourage you to have fresh bread every morning.
