Wafer made with honey

“The house of Israel called its name Manna… the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.” – Exodus 16:31 

Sweet snacks can make everyone’s mouth water. Sweet snacks are the favourite item of people of all ages. Paniyaram is one of the special Tamilian sweet snacks. It is so palatable that people enjoy eating it until they are satiated. Can you imagine, how delicious it will be if it is made with honey? It must be heavenly! 

The 16th chapter of Exodus in the Old Testament deals with how the Lord provided Israelites with sweet food from heaven. Its taste was that of paniyaram made with honey. They called its name Manna. Every morning they gathered it according to each one’s need. It was pleasant to taste and delectable. Then the Israelites understood the Lord’s care and lovingkindness more and more through the miraculous way He fed them. 

Friends, many of our lives seem to be bitter because we wish things to happen then and there without any delay. As a result, we feel fatigue and disappointed. The word of God is the Living Manna that can alter the bitterness of our lives into a sweeter and tastier one. It has the power to renew all our plans, thoughts, ideas and actions. We derive a sweet taste for our lives from the word of God. The word of God is “Sweeter than honey and the honey comb.” (Psalms 19:10) We have to seek it with zeal and passion and with whole heart. Let us read the word of God with delight, meditate on it and follow the precepts of the Lord. Our lives will be sweetened.
