Welcome to Douglas Wilson's The Plodcast, presented by Canon Press. Yes God.

Don't never.

Welcome to the Plodcast.

This is Douglas Wilson. This is episode 2018.

episode 2018. So as we speak, as I'm recording this, we are dealing with all sorts of disrupted supply chains.

There are freighters off the coast of America that are stacked piled high with containers and we're having difficulty getting things delivered on time.

Anybody who's engaged in any kind of project like building a house knows that it's difficult to get things in a timely way, and when you get

them they're expensive and there's all sorts of supply chain monkey shines, right?

The thing I want to remind everybody of is that Jesus is Lord of the

supply chain. When Jesus says the lilies of the field, neither consider the lilies of

the field.

Solomon and all his splendor was not arrayed like any of them.

They do not toil, they do not spin.

And yet they're gloriously arrayed.

The birds of the air are fed. What Jesus is telling us, he's saying that we need to trust

God when we pray and we ask God for our daily bread, when we ask God to provide for us, when we ask God for food and shelter and clothing.

Jesus is very explicit on this.

He says your Heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

These are things that you need all these things. These are things that you need and you can trust

him to take care of you. Christians confess that Jesus is Lord and that confession means that he's Lord. that

he's Lord of the supply chain.

Everything is in the palm of his hand.
