We're starting a 3-week series on complaining. When we're trying to grow spiritually, it is okay to complain to God and ask for His help so we can enjoy giving up things we love.

8416. 'Behold, I am causing it to rain bread from heaven for you' means that heavenly good will flow in. This is clear from the meaning of 'raining' as a blessing, dealt with in 2445, the reason why 'raining' means a blessing being that as rain comes down from heaven or the sky and causes the land to be productive, so Divine Goodness and Truth come down from heaven to a person and cause him to be blessed, from which it is evident that 'raining' in the proximate sense means flowing in (for all good from the Divine flows in); and from the meaning of 'bread' as heavenly good, dealt with below.
