We take a closer look at "our daily bread" and how what God has already given us might help us recognize and do his will. ___

Our often crowded Rosary Army task lists raise a practical question: how do we tell which good ideas are actually the work God wants us to do? Some responsibilities and tasks come from our own ideas, while others come to us through people and circumstances we did not necessarily pursue. As we tried to discern which projects and tasks to take on, we were brought back to the Our Father, where "thy will be done" comes immediately before the request for daily bread.

This is what we decided to tackle in this episode: our daily bread is more than just food and shelter or even a list of desired outcomes. Depending on our seasons of life, our daily bread can be the grace, time, talent, relationships, work, and even suffering already present today. The Catechism's explanation of "give us" points to the trust of children who depend on their Father without using that trust as an excuse for idleness. We talk about that trust, seeking God's will, and also (obviously) connect daily bread to the Eucharist, the Word of God, and the Rosary as we ask what it means to use what God has already given us.
