A very simple sight: just some farm wagons laden with corn—food for the starving household. It was these wagons turning into the courtyard that raised the fast-falling hopes of Jacob to expectancy.

These wagons of His are a great stimulus to our faith. They come unseen to us in our hours of darkness—when our hopes are dashed to the ground. Yes, when we are in the awful grips of spiritual starvation, how blessed are these wagons as they are seen approaching! Lift up your eyes! Look out for them! When they come, they will not be empty! You will be fed and nourished with the choicest of His stores.
