We noted a parallel between Joseph and Jesus - the time of testing for Joseph's family and Jesus' disciples and the revelation of love coming to them from Joseph and Jesus.
Here, we note another parallel between Joseph and Jesus.
Joseph gives food to his own family and also to the whole land of Egypt.
Jesus gives food to... His own disciples and also to a great multitude - "four thousand, besides women and children" (Matthew 15:38).
There is an important principle here - the Bread of Life is not only for the Church.
It's also for the world, the multitudes who are hungry for the spiritual food which only Christ can give to them.
To hunger for the presence of the Lord, while feeling that He is far away, is a painful thing.
This was the experience of the Psalmist in Psalm 13:1.
He was facing very difficult circumstances.
His enemies were saying, "I have overcome him."
His foes were rejoicing when he fell (Psalm 13:2,4).
Despite all of this, he continued to trust in the Lord.
He kept on rejoicing in the Lord.
He kept on singing praise to the Lord,.
He kept on giving thanks to God for His goodness (Psalm 13:5-6).
