I Am The Bread of Life:
The Only Food We Really Need

As Jesus concluded his bread of life discourse, many said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?” and walked away. Read carefully. He did not say the teaching was hard to understand. That was simple. Jesus was teaching that the only chance to enjoy eternity in heaven was through a close, intimate connection to him. He is the only bread that gives eternal life. That isn’t hard to understand but, but it is hard to accept. Eating this bread means reordering our lives so that Jesus is by far our highest priority. It means loving the Blesser infinitely more than his earthly blessings. It means realizing that Jesus is the only thing we really need; that if we had nothing but him, we would not be lacking anything.

Jesus watches the multitudes walking away from him. He turns to the Twelve… he turns to us this week… and he whispers, “You do not want to leave me too, do you?” May the Spirit give us the wisdom to answer, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
