John 6: 44-50
44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me— 46 not that anyone has seen the Father except he who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”
The "Living Bread", the "Bread of Life", nourishes us as we walk this planet and provides the nutrition that strengthens us and enables us to journey safely to our heavenly home. Through this bread we experience the presence of Jesus, not only in our tabernacles, but in our hearts when we receive Holy Communion. It's a difficult journey we are on, but this heavenly fuel keeps our cylinders firing and provides the power we need to pass through mud or or overcome every obstacle on the road. May we take advantage of this gift as often as we can, and never stop thanking Jesus for making such a close and fruitful union possible
