wait for God to take care of him.
After awhile he became hungry and
nothing came his way. But in the dis.

packs which he knew contained food
to eat. And so he grew so hungry that
he followed them.
Up the hill he toiled, while still in
the distance were the food-laden
horses. They led him a fine march,
and he grew weaker with the hunger.
At last he came near to where the
horses had stopped earlier In the day,
and there he found food that had been
left over.
