Bread of life

 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. (John 6:35 ESV)
In context here, the discussion is about Moses and the Manna in the wilderness. The Jewish leaders were trusting in their dependence on and twisting of the Law of Moses to give them spiritual life.  It could not.  What they needed, and we need, is the true Bread of Life, the One who gives life, spiritual and physical alike.  Whenever we "break bread" and remember what He has done, we look to Him as the life-giver He is, the One in whom we believe.
