God gives daily bread.
Whatever we have is from Him.
Whatever we have is what He has decided is good for us.
Because of our sinful flesh, we are never satisfied with the amount of what we have.
But sometimes people don't have.
There are house-fires. There are deaths. There is war. And hunger. And betrayal. And concentration camps. And unemployment.
This can seem paradoxical at times, because God gives daily bread even when it appears that there is evidence that He doesn't.
When we don't have:
1. we still know God gives what we do have
2. we still praise Him
3. we still believe that this is good
4. and most importantly, we still have Jesus and His forgiveness.
Give us this day our daily "Living Bread which came down from heaven."
