Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Jesus the Bread of Life” – Faith: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaims, “I am the Bread of Life from heaven.” Ponder on, “Jesus gives Himself as the spiritual nourishment that we need for our soul. Through the Eucharist, He strengthens us to live the Faith that offers Eternal Life. Do we value the gift of the Eucharist?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
John 6:35-40
Jesus said to the crowd: ‘I am the bread of life. No one who comes to me will ever hunger; no one who believes in me will ever thirst. But, as I have told you, you can see me and still you do not believe.
‘Everyone whom the Father gives me will come to me; I will certainly not reject anyone who comes to me, because I have come from heaven, not to do my own will, but to do the will of him who sent me. Now the will of him who sent me is that I should lose nothing of all that he has given to me, but that I should raise it up on the last day.
‘It is my Father’s will that whoever sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and that I should raise that person up on the last day.’
