Salmon held the bread of heaven reverently. All his life he had taken it for granted; now he realized how precious it was. As he ate it, tears came, for he knew this bread had come from the very hand of God, a free gift keeping him alive. Could there ever be anything as sweet? Could anything else be as nourishing?
- Francine Rivers, from “Unashamed” in ‘A Lineage of Grace’
