Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty” (John 6:35).
The crowd followed Jesus after he fed the five thousand. They were looking for a miracle, like Moses and the manna in the desert. The Lord underscored his point: what they are eating isn’t what they truly needed. He is the one that will satisfy their spiritual hunger. All they needed to do was believe.
Apply it in prayer: Father, your son made it clear – he is the bread of life. I can’t reach heaven on my own – only through him. My salvation is the miracle I need to prove you are who you say you are. Thank you for your gift of Jesus.
Paul Ciotta
