The Bread of Life

From DeAnna:

It's nice to know God is on my side. I decided to do a little search for something to read before an actually delicious bowl of Muesli this morning. Remember that fasting is not my forte, it seems that the devotional I found seems to be exactly what I needed to read. The key verse - I am the bread of life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died. But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which people may eat and not die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world." John 6:48-51.

Jesus must be the daily dose of food that we seek. The intention of this is to grow closer to God, not to become holier than thou, but to find His peace and understanding. Just a little something to nibble on this morning.
