Friday
Read John 6:51-58
51I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone
eats this bread, he will live for ever. The bread that I will give him is my
flesh, which I give so that the world may live.”
52 This started an angry argument
among them. “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” they asked.
53 Jesus said to them, “I am telling
you the truth: if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his
blood, you will not have life in yourselves. 54Those who eat my
flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them to life on
the last day. 55For my flesh is the real food; my blood is the real
drink. 56Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood live in me, and I
live in them. 57The living Father sent me, and because of him I live
also. In the same way whoever eats me will live because of me. 58This,
then, is the bread that came down from heaven; it is not like the bread that your
ancestors ate. They later died, but those who eat this bread will live for
ever.”
Think
Jesus continues to tell the people the mystery of how his broken body and
shed blood can sustain them.
