Do we only look to Jesus for our physical needs? Health? Wealth? Food? Drink? Home? Work?
Have we not yet learnt that we should rather be yearning for God’s presence in our lives? For Jesus to rule in our hearts? For with God’s presence in our lives we shall not want.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
Thank you Lord Jesus for the greatest gift of Yourself in the Eucharist. Heavenly manna that does not perish! Bread of life! Amen.
Let us pray…
Jesus my Lord, my God, I don’t want to live a life without You. Help me remain steadfast in Your love. In your precious name.. Amen.
Gospel John 6:22–29
[After Jesus had fed the five thousand men, his disciples saw him walking on the sea.]
The next day, the crowd that remained across the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not gone along with his disciples in the boat, but only his disciples had left. Other boats came from Tiberias near the place where they had eaten the bread when the Lord gave thanks. When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into boats and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus. And when they found him across the sea they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?” Jesus answered them and said, “Amen, amen, I say to you, you are looking for me not because you saw signs but because you ate the loaves and were filled. Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him the Father, God, has set his seal.” So they said to him, “What can we do to accomplish the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in the one he sent.”
