God does feed us. He feeds us in the only way infinite Love could—abundantly and to our joyous, complete satisfaction. The spiritual fact is that because God expresses Himself in self-perpetuation, self-renewal, self-sustenance, His image and likeness, man, consciously experiences this same boundless measure of satisfied, uninterrupted preservation.
God continually reveals this fact to human consciousness in promise and fulfillment. The Bible gives liberal illustration of Love's perfectly balanced economy, made evident in human experience. And now in our time the promised Comforter has been brought to mankind in Christian Science, through the spiritual discovery of Mary Baker Eddy. In her textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," we are shown that these evidences of God's provision for man are the natural outcome of divine law. Thus they need nevermore be regarded as rare, speculative phenomena and so mistakenly termed miracles. This Christ Science, when fully acknowledged and understood, establishes forever in one's experience the immortally operative law of God's loving, balanced economy. The ways in which nutriment was provided for the Israelites, for Elijah and many others, illustrates the operation of this law.
Because God, Spirit, the creator, naturally expresses Himself in an entirely spiritual universe, man and the universe—His manifestation—reflect only the divine Life; they subsist upon and reflect His substance. In their conscious feeding upon divine intelligence as their substance, they continually "taste and see that the Lord is good," as the Psalmist sang (Ps. 34:8). How presumptuous then for men to insist that food and nourishment should appear only within the narrow, limited, restricted pattern and mode which human thought concedes as logical! How unreasonable to assume that the divine economy of God for His universe could possibly follow the always unbalanced pattern of toil and unequal gain, of scarcity or useless superfluity, of tedious accretion and difficult disposal—the picture usually presented by the material senses.
