Jesus: Bread of Life

"I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever." John 6:35

Bread of Life was our topic of discussion in ABF on Sunday. Just like the Israelites in the Old Testament, so many people in the world today need "signs" as proof of significance. They are in desperate need of real relationships and are searching for the the one thing that will "make them". If we put our faith in Jesus Christ, He is all we need...no sign is necessary for proof that we will live for eternity. Unfortunately, some of us who believe could have manna raining down from heaven and would still question His sovereignty.

Remember this week...we all need food to survive. God uses bread throughout the Bible as a reminder that it is He who sustains life...manna in the wilderness (Exodus 16:4), the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Exodus 12), and Jesus feeding 5,000 (John 6:14-15). Only He can provide the Bread of Life to such a hungry world. Will you share your bread with those that are starving?
