Hunger is a powerful motivating force, isn’t it? We’ve all seen gut wrenching pictures of people facing starvation and the desperate things they’ll do to find food for themselves or especially their children. As parents and grandparents, we take seriously making sure our families have enough food, don’t we? There are several times in the Bible when people faced famine and usually significant things happened in those dreadful times. Do you remember some of those stories? A famine in Bethlehem forced Naomi and her family to move east looking for food and you’ll recall that is when Ruth came into their family! (Ruth 1) Another famine forced Jacob and his family to move south to Egypt to find food, and Joseph his son welcomed them, remember? (Genesis 46)
